The slogan was an unmistakable reference to the Except, this ad had The ad also had only one photo – Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Chief Minister Eknath Shinde – and only Shiv Sena symbol in a corner. When asked about the ad, Shinde told mediapersons, "Our government works under the guidance of the country's prime minister Narendra Modi. This is a double engine government." He also tried to play down the matter of Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' missing photo. "Photo may be there or not but both of us are in people's hearts and that is more important." Before the current CM joined hands with the BJP in June 2022, the slogan 'Narendra in the Country, Devendra in the State' was popular among the BJP followers. It is also not a secret that Fadnavis wasn't happy about having to cede the CM post to Shinde last year. The tagline of 'Modi for India, Shinde for Maharashtra' wouldn't have gone down well with him. On Tuesday, he cancelled his scheduled Kolhapur visit, apparently because he was upset over the ad. The official reason given was that he wanted to avoid air travel due to a problem to his eardrum. Otherwise a media-savvy politician, he refused to speak to reporters on Tuesday. What may have really ticked off Fadnavis and the BJP was the c...

Amid growing tensions within Maharashtra’s ruling parties, the Shiv Sena led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Deputy CM and State BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on June 13 cancelled his visit to Kolhapur district citing ‘medical reasons’. Friction arose between the ‘Mahayuti’ (translated ‘grand alliance’) partners after a newspaper advertisement placed by the Shinde-led Sena cited a survey which claimed Mr. Shinde was more preferred as the State’s CM than Mr. Fadnavis.

There were no p...
