Assam ministers Ashok Singhal and Pijush Hazarika meets Eknath Shinde in Guwahati

Assam ministers Ashok Singhal and Pijush Hazarika on Sunday went to hotel in Guwahati, where the rebel Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde is camping with other MLA. This is the third time in two days that Singhal, the Assam Housing and Urban Affairs Minister, has met the Maharashtra leaders. 

The MVA government plunged into its gravest crisis early on Tuesday after Shiv Sena Minister Eknath Shinde suddenly revolted along with a group of Shiv Sena MLAs and Ministers, and reached Surat early on Tuesday morning. In a cryptic tweet, Eknath Shinde said "we will never cheat for power and never abandon teachings of Bal Thackeray". 

The revolt by Eknath Shinde has created a stir in the politics of the state including Shiv Sena. Eknath Shinde and other Shiv Sena MLAs who had revolted against the Uddhav Thackeray-led Mahavikas Aghadi government have arrived in Guwahati. Eknath Shinde has formed a large group of more than 40 MLAs with Shiv Sena. Therefore, there are signs that the Mahavikas Aghadi government in the state is becoming unstable.
