CM Eknath Shinde congratulates new Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar
Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in his speech in congratulating the new Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar. The whole state and the country has seen that we have left our ministerial berths and quit power. I consider my good will and fate that all these (rebel MLAs) have supported me. There were talks that the (Sena uddhav group) was claiming that they had 10 people, 20 people in touch with them. I told them tell the names of these MLAs and i would send these MLAs back. When one MLA had expressed his wish earlier I had sent him back by plane. Different inducements were made but the MLAs stuck with me. I did not have any expectations, the BJP has however given me this honour.
