Six Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs form separate group, claims Eknath Shinde faction

The Shiv Sena faction led by deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde said on Tuesday that six rebel Sena (UBT) MPs had signed a letter indicating they had formed a separate group within the party.

The development marks another internal split within Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena (UBT), though the exact strength and implications of the breakaway group remained unclear.
