A big problem has come up in Maharashtra politics. Sanjay Raut, a leader, says that some Members of Parliament from Shiv Sena (UBT) are being offered a lot of money to join another party. This has made people wonder if the party led by Uddhav Thackeray is going to split.

The situation is very tense in Maharashtra. Different groups are saying things about each other and making big claims.

₹50 Crore Allegation

Sanjay Raut says that someone important told him that Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs are being offered 50 crore rupees each to switch sides. They are also being given 15 crore rupees in advance. He said this during a press conference and called it an attempt to buy MPs in Maharashtra politics. His statement has caused a big storm and people from all parties are talking about it.

Sanjay Raut also wrote on social media that MPs are being offered a lot of money. He says that this is what happens when politics is about money.

Party Meeting and Whip

Shiv Sena (UBT) has told its MPs to attend a party meeting. This is because a few MPs went to meetings called by Uddhav Thackeray at his home in Mumbai. The party leaders say that all MPs who were elected using the party symbol must be loyal and attend meetings.

Operation Tiger Rumours

There are reports that something called "Operation Tiger" is being used to get Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs to join another party. If six MPs leave together, they can avoid getting in trouble with the law. Some MPs have been named. Nothing is confirmed yet.

MLA Defection Concerns

The problem is not just with MPs. Some Shiv Sena (UBT) MLAs might also be in touch with leaders from parties. If this is true, it could mean that there will be a change in Maharashtra politics and the party led by Uddhav Thackeray will get even weaker.

Shinde Camp Reaction

The Eknath Shinde camp says that they are not directly involved in trying to get MPs to join them. They say that many leaders are unhappy with Shiv Sena (UBT) and might want to join their side on their own. They welcome anyone who wants to follow their ideology.

Political Uncertainty in Maharashtra

This problem has shown again that there are divisions in Maharashtra politics. The current situation has made people afraid that there will be another shake-up in politics. While Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders say that there will not be a split, the meetings and allegations are making people unsure about what will happen. Shiv Sena (UBT) is still trying to figure out what to do. Maharashtra politics is still very uncertain.
