Last month, MLC Manisha Kayande joined the Shinde camp and following reports of her shift, the Uddhav Thackeray-led party sacked her as
party spokesperson for anti-party activities."I have decided to work with Eknath Shinde under the guidance of Devendra Fadnavis on the
issues of women development, Maharashtra and the country," said Gorhe, adding, "Shiv Sena is on the right path under the leadership of
Eknath Shinde.""I joined Shiv Sena in 1998
I got to do good work there
However, in current situation, the Supreme Court has said that Shiv Sena under the leadership of Eknath Shinde is official Sena," Gorhe
added.When asked if women party leaders were unhappy over the entry of Sushma Andhare, Gorhe said that there was no such issue.Stating that
it is a historic entry, Eknath Shinde said that even deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis and other party leaders are present here to welcome her
into the party.Shinde also added that Gorhe's entry shows how strong the BJP and Shiv Sena alliance is."The decision we took was being
discussed across the state, however, we don't pay attention to those who can't accept it and want to criticise," added Shinde.WatchMumbai:
