Maharashtra witnessed two weeks of political turmoil since Shinde raised the flag of rebellion against the Thackerays.A large faction of Shiv Sena MLAs jumped the ship and joined the rebel camp. Shinde has been claiming that he has the support of around 40 of 55 Shiv Sena MLAs.Though the fledgling Shinde government has comfortably won the trust vote, NCP chief Sharad Pawar has predicted that the new government will fall within six months and mid-term Assembly elections will be held in the state.CVoter-IndiaTracker conducted a nationwide survey on behalf of to know peoples' views about Pawar's comment and survival of the Shinde government.

During the survey, 75 per cent Upper Caste Hindus (UCH), 66 per cent Scheduled Tribes (ST), 65 per cent Other Backward Classes (OBC) and 64 per cent Scheduled Castes (SC) said that the new ruling dispensation will complete its full term and there will be no mid-term polls in the state. However, during the survey, majority of Muslim respondents 73 per cent agreed with the views of Pawar.The survey further revealed that Ind remain divided about the leadership of the real Shiv Sena.During the survey, while respondents were divided in their views, a bigger proportion 52 per cent now believes that Shinde is the leader of Shiv Sena, 48 per cent still consider Thackeray as the head of the party.Notably, in the CVoter-IndiaTracker survey, conducted on the issue of leadership of Shiv Sena on June 24, a large proportion of respondents 53 per cent had opined in favour of Thackeray.
