Ongoing political crisis after the rebellion staged by the veteran Shiv Sena minister Eknath Shinde and other legislators on Thursday took a new twist after the Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut said the party is ready to move out of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance but insisted that the rebel leaders should come back to Mumbai in 24 hours and discuss the issue with the Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray instead of emails and TV bytes.

Shiv Sena MLA Deepak Vasant Kesarkar on Saturday said that rebel MLAs will not quit Shiv Sena and they possess a two-thirds majority to follow the path they wanted.

A court on Saturday sent the arrested individuals to police remand for seven days.

Two journalists, Bijoy Kakchingtabam, 54 and Leimapokpam Shanjitkumar, 41 associated with the local media in Manipur, were suspended on Saturday by the All Manipur Working Journalists Union (AMWJU) after they were arrested on Friday following their alleged links with the militant outfits.
