A day after Eknath Shinde was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Friday while alleging that the BJP vowed to "disturb" the Uddhav Thackeray government the day it came to power in 2019, said that his party would not do the same and the new administration "must work for the public".

Speaking to the media, Raut said, "I congratulate this government. I welcome them. When the Uddhav Thackeray govt came, they were saying from the first day that they will disturb him. But we won't do that. We won't disturb this government, they must work for the public."
