In a big political move in Maharashtra politics, Former Congress leader Milind Deora today joined Shiv Sena in the presence of Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde, in Mumbai after quitting Congress. After joining Shiv Sena, Milind Deora said, "I have been receiving a lot of phone calls since morning that why did I sever 55-year-old ties of my family with Congress party...I was loyal to the party during its most challenging decade. Unfortunately, today`s Congress is very different from the Congress of 1968 as well as that of 2004. Had Congress and UBT given importance to constructive & positive suggestions and merit & capability, Eknath Shinde and I wouldn`t have been here. Eknath Shinde had to make a major decision, I had to make a major decision..."
