Former Maharashtra Minister Aaditya Thackeray on Sunday took a swipe at the state government after Chief Minister Eknath Shinde allocated the portfolios, keeping Urban Development and 11 other ministries with himself, while giving the crucial Home and Finance ministries to Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
Thackeray said there was a “major imbalance of power” as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) grabbed a majority of the coveted ministries. The Yuva Sena chief also slammed the Shinde-Fadnavis government over no representation for women in the cabinet.
Taking to Twitter, the Worli MLA wrote, “When the focus is on Government and not Governance, it takes 41 days for cabinet expansion (with a promise of another one), and then 5 days for portfolio allocation (with a major imbalance of power), in a dispensation with no representation for women and State’s capital- Mumbai.”
