In June this year, Shinde and 39 other Sena legislators had rebelled against the party leadership, leading to the fall of the Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, which comprised the Sena, NCP and Congress.
Shinde was on June 30 sworn in as the chief minister and <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/bhandara-rape-case-be-tried-in-special-court-in-timebound-manner-says-maharashtra-bjp-leader-23239696" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">BJP</a> leader <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/india-news/article/maharashtra-govt-functioning-not-affected-by-delay-in-cabinet-expansion-cm-shinde-23239722" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Devendra Fadnavis</a> took oath as the deputy CM.
Uddhav Thackeray's son and Sena MLA Aaditya Thackeray on Saturday claimed the Eknath Shinde-led government was "illegal" and would not last long.
The former state minister also said he does not feel anger towards the rebel MLAs who toppled the government led by his father, but feels sad.
