By our Special Correspondent

Amid reports of a possible rift in the Mahayuti, Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis on Tuesday defended deputy CM Eknath Shinde’s decision to set up a medical aid cell at Mantralaya, saying there is nothing wrong with the initiative as it aims to assist people.

          Despite the existence of the Chief Minister's Relief Fund (CMRF), Eknath Shinde has set up the medical aid cell and clarified on Monday that there is “absolutely no cold war” with CM Fadnavis.
