Mumbai: Ahead of Maharashtra cabinet expansion, Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) leader Sanjay Raut on Saturday took a dig at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Mahayuti alliance. Raut asked the ruling Mahayuti alliance to take out a procession of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) and take the decision to construct an EVM temple. "First of all, the procession of the Chief Minister will be taken out there (in Nagpur).
I think that before taking out the procession of the CM, they should take out a procession of EVMs and in the first cabinet they should make a decision to construct a temple of EVMs in front of RSS Headquarters," Raut said in a press conference on Saturday. The Shiv Sena (UBT) MP further hit out at the newly formed government for not being able to decide on cabinet responsibilities. "It has been a month since the new government formed in this state but it is not known who has which department.
Murders and rapes are happening in villages of Maharashtra every day, the CM is unable to answer this. Anarchy has spread in Maharashtra. This government has been formed with EVMs, they do not have a brain, they have EVMs in their brains," Raut added.
