Mumbai (25.06.2025): When Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis delayed shifting to official residence of the CM, it was rumoured that some fear of tantric practice was behind the decision which was later denied. Now, once again Maharashtra’s political corridors are abuzz with speculation when several of its leaders recently visited Kamakhya temple in Assam. The role of city is important in the formation of Shiv Sena government in Maharashtra. A new name has now entered this domain — a cabinet heavyweight from the Konkan belt, embroiled in a bitter tussle over the plum post of guardian minister. A video clip, said to be from last year but recently gone public, appears to show the minister in ritual regalia seated beside an Aghori sadhu clad in black, in what seems like a ritualistic invocation.
