While Shinde faction is busy saving the chair, Devendra Fadnavis' camp is playing a different game behind their back, said Team Thackeray.
Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) on Tuesday claimed Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde is on his way out soon but who will be his rubber stamp successor, the observation coming amid various rumours doing rounds of the state political circles.
In an editorial in party mouthpiece 'Saamana', the Shiv Sena (UBT) said while the Shinde faction is busy saving the chair, Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's camp is sweet-talking them and playing a different game behind their back.
"The chief minister will surely go," the editorial said.
Later talking to reporters, 'Saamana' executive editor and Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut said Chief Minister Shinde, who has gone to his native place in Satara, could probably extend his leave.
