Sanjay Raut certain of Shiv Sena MLAs’ homecoming, says ‘all are loyal Shiv Sainiks’

A day after suspected cross-voting in Maharashtra MLC polls, Shiv Sena leader and spokesperson Sanjay Raut showed faith in his inaccessible cabinet minister Eknath Shinde and party MLAs and said that all the Shiv Sainiks will return once they get the opportunity.“We got in contact with the MLAs. All our MLAs are in Surat. Many want to return but aren’t being allowed to leave. All will return once they get the chance as they all are loyal ‘Shiv Sainiks’. Everything will be okay, discussions are on,” said Sanjay Raut. Shiv Sena leader and state cabinet minister Eknath Shinde reportedly went incommunicado with 10 party MLAs.
