Mumbai: Amid monsoon session of state legislature, there were reports that deputy CM Eknath Shinde visited Delhi late Wednesday. Sena minister Uday Samant said Shinde might have met top netas in Delhi on occasion of Guru Purnima Thursday.

Observers said Shinde’s visit, at a time when his Sena is facing controversies and when there is talk of a Sena (UBT)-MNS alliance, was significant.“We don’t know whom Eknath Shinde met in Delhi. But to meet netas in New Delhi for Maharashtra‘s development is not wrong,” Samant added. TNN
