Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde responded to alleged 'neech' remarks from Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray, asserting that criticism stemmed from an inability to accept a common laborer rising to CM. Shinde framed it as an insult to all farmers' sons and the marginalized. He urged support for his party in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, emphasizing backing for Prime Minister Modi.
