Eknath Shinde, who took oath as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra yesterday after nine days of rebellion against the Uddhav Thackeray government, has sent out a strong message over his claims to Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray's legacy.

By naming Eknath Shinde for the top post in Maharashtra, the BJP has tackled criticism that it is power-hungry.

Shortly after Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray was ordered to prove his majority tomorrow, the Shiv Sena approached the Supreme Court against Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari's order.

Shiv Sena rebels led by Eknath Shinde are expected to move from Guwahati to Goa today as Uddhav Thackeray was ordered to prove a majority in the Maharashtra assembly.

The Maharashtra crisis peaked with 37 Shiv Sena MLAs of the Eknath Shinde faction writing to the Governor and Deputy Speaker, naming him the legislature party leader and completely sidelining Uddhav Thackeray in the party founded by his father.
