In a major political development amid the ongoing crisis in Maharashtra, rebel Shiv Sena leader and Minister Eknath Shinde spoke to MNS supremo Raj Thackeray. The latter was discharged from the Lilavati Hospital in Mumbai on June 25 after undergoing hip replacement surgery. As per sources, Shinde called Thackeray twice, once when he was in the hospital and second when he reached home. The Thane strongman not only inquired about the MNS chief's health but also discussed the ongoing political situation, sources revealed. While Raj Thackeray has refrained from commenting on the rebellion in Shiv Sena that has affected the stability of the MVA government led by his cousin Uddhav Thackeray, his party members have taken a dig at the party. For instance, on the day when some Sena MLAs reached a 5-star hotel in Surat, MNS leader Sandeep Deshpande commented, "Is June 21 the most important day in the year or the last day in Varsha (CM's official residence)"? Once touted as the political heir of Balasaheb Thackeray, Raj Thackeray quit as a primary member of the Sena in December 2005 and formed MNS a few months later. Rebellion in Shiv Sena On July 21, senior Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde and multiple other party MLAs went incommunicado and went to the Le Meridian hotel in Surat.

An MNS leader on Monday confirmed that Eknath Shinde spoke to Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray about the recent political situation in the Maharashtra. The leader said that Shinde spoke to Raj Thackeray, the nephew of former Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray, over the phone twice and also enquired about his health – Raj was discharged from hospital two days ago after hip surgery. Let’s take a look at what Shinde calling up Raj means: 350 years of Shivaji Maharaj’s coronation: How will Maharashtra mark it? Why Kathleen Folbigg, woman who spent 20 yrs in prison for killing her four babies, has now been pardoned Merger on cards? Well, the most obvious takeaway from this could be a possible merger. Highly placed sources in the Shinde camp told Indian Express they were eyeing three options: the MNS, Prahar Janashakti (whose MLAs have already extended it support) and the BJP “if the situation so demands.” Deepak Kesarkar told the newspaper, “We are not going to merge with any party. We are very much a part of the Sena. Since a majority of the members are on our side, we should be considered the real Shiv Sena.” Add to the fact that the MNS has been attacking the Uddhav-led Sena for “compromising on Hindutva” – the very charge that the breakaway group has levelled against it. And merging with Raj’s group would help Shinde retain a share of the Thackeray political legacy, the newspaper noted. With just one MLA, the MNS is a non-entity in Maharashtra at the moment...

Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde dialed Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray offering his party a position in the cabinet, sources from Republic Media Network have learned.
