With the sudden change in leadership, the editorial in the Sena mouthpiece Saamana claimed that the "balloon" of Gujarat's model of development, governance, and democracy has now been burst.
The Shiv Sena today said the sudden change of guard in Gujarat, where first-time BJP MLA Bhupendra Patel has been appointed as the new chief minister, reflected the style of functioning generally associated with the Congress and claimed that the move shows that the "balloon" of Gujarat's development model has burst. An editorial in Sena mouthpiece "Saamana" said the people of Gujarat were extremely angry over the "collapse" of the healthcare system during the second Covid wave when Vijay Rupani was the chief minister, and the BJP also realised that the influential Patidar community, to which Bhupendra Patel belongs, is miffed with the party, leading to the change at the top. "The same thing takes place in the Congress and we have to call it democracy," quipped the Sena, a former ally of the BJP which now shares power with the Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) in Maharashtra.
