In a recent issue of Saamana, Shiv Sena (UBT) alleged that Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is steering a mobocracy rather than governing responsibly.
Shiv Sena (UBT) published a statement in the newspaper Saamana accusing Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis of running a mobocracy instead of a legitimate government.
The article, which appeared in the latest edition of Saamana, claims that Fadnavis’s administration is dominated by populist measures that prioritize public sentiment over structured governance.
No official response from the Chief Minister’s office has been issued to date, and the claim remains unverified by independent sources.
Fadnavis has been in office since 2014, leading the Bharatiya Janata Party’s coalition in Maharashtra. The allegation by Shiv Sena (UBT) adds to the political tensions within the state’s ruling coalition.
