The BJP has taken yet another decision that the Shiv Sena is opposed to. In a first-of-its-kind move, the state government has shifted the monsoon session of the Maharashtra Legislature to Nagpur, from Mumbai. The three-week jamboree will start on July 4. In fact, it was a foregone conclusion that the session would go to the state's second capital, as the government staff had been told to book their travel to Nagpur even before the official clearance came from the Governor House late Thursday.
