Amid mounting criticism over recent controversies involving Shiv Sena leaders, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister and party president Eknath Shinde has issued a stern warning to party members. Addressing a closed-door meeting, Shinde urged them to maintain discipline and said they should not ‘compel’ him to take action. He emphasised that such incidents damage not only their individual reputations but also the image of the party as a whole, adding that he would be forced to act if such behavior continued.
