The recent confrontation involving Shiv Sena MLA Sanjay Gaikwad and a canteen employee has triggered a political storm. Uddhav Thackeray has directly accused Eknath Shinde of being behind a conspiracy to undermine Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis. Gaikwad, who belongs to the Shinde group, stated that the canteen staff repeatedly ignored complaints about the poor food quality, including the use of stale ingredients. CM Devendra Fadnavis condemned the incident, asserting that such behavior is not befitting of a legislator.
