Protests by political leaders were once again witnessed during the ongoing Maharashtra monsoon session on Wednesday. Several leaders from opposition and the Shiv Sena MLAs supporting state Chief Minister Eknath Shinde came face-to-face and began shouting slogans against each other on the steps of the Vidhan Bhavan in Mumbai.

According to the PTI, the NCP MLAs carried carrots in an bid to taunt the ruling Shiv Sena-BJP coalition. The Shinde faction MLAs tried to snatch the carrots from the NCP legislators, raising tension on the legislature building steps. Some legislators from the two sides then intervened and diffused the tension. Members from both the sides kept shouting slogans against each other for some time and then went inside Vidhan Bhavan to attend the day's proceedings.
