Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut Saturday expressed his anger over the delay in nominating Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray to the Maharashtra Legislative Council by Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari.

Frowning upon the Governor’s decision to seek legal advice before nominating the Shiv Sena chief, Raut targeted the former BJP leader on Twitter.

Raut tweeted: “Raj bhavan, governor’s house shouldn’t become a center for political conspiracy. Remember! history doesn’t spare those who behave unconstitutionally . @maha_governor.”

The attack comes after Maharashtra Deputy CM Ajit Pawar had recently recommended Thackeray’s name for the MLC under the Governor quota at a cabinet meeting.

Thackeray is currently not a member of either of the two state legislature houses. In accordance with the Constitution, a chief minister or a minister has to be a member of either of the two houses within 6 months of being sworn into the post. Thackeray will complete 6 months on 28 May, 2020 as he was sworn in on 28 November, 2019 as the chief minister of Maharashtra.
