The Shiv Sena has eliminated two office-bearers of its Thane unit after a video confirmed some individuals dancing and showering foreign money notes in entrance of a portrait of late Anand Dighe, the mentor of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
The incident passed off on September 12 in the course of the Ganesh competition.
A video confirmed some native social gathering activists dancing and showering cash in entrance of the portrait of Dighe at Anand Ashram, the place the latter used to run the Thane unit of the Shiv Sena.
The clip later went viral on social media.
CM Shinde and Thane Shiv Sena MP Naresh Mhaske had expressed disapproval, calling the incident “extremely disagreeable” and opposite to the respectful method by which Dighe celebrated such events.
As per an order issued by Mhaske on Saturday night time, the 2 social gathering office-bearers have been dismissed in reference to the matter. Their posts weren’t specified within the order.
The CM’s social gathering harassed on the necessity for applicable conduct throughout celebrations.
