Thackeray faction raises “50 Khoke” slogans in front of CM Shinde at Maharashtra Assembly
Mumbai: MLAs of former Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray’s faction on Wednesday protested against Chief Minister Eknath Shinde at the Maharashtra Vidhan Sabha and raised slogans against his betrayal to the Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray.
The MLAs raised the slogan “50 Khoke” (50 Crores) to take a dig at Shinde claiming that his faction of MLAs were bribed 50 Crore rupees each by the BJP for the rebellion.
The video of the incident is being widely shared across social media platforms. In the video, the MLAs can be seen raising the slogan as the CM steps out of the assembly along with some of his MLAs and officials.
The Uddhav Thackeray government collapsed in Maharashtra earlier in June this year after a BJP-enabled rebellion in the Shiv Sena by Eknath Shinde, who is now Chief Minister.

Online fraud: Hotel chef from Udupi cheated of over Rs 1 lakh by WhatsApp contact
Udupi: Udupi City Police have registered a case of online fraud after a 62-year-old hotel chef was allegedly cheated of Rs 1.13 lakh by a woman who befriended him on WhatsApp, claiming to be based in London.
The victim, identified as Pandu Kariappa Poojary, a resident of Kuthpadi in Udupi, was working at a hotel in Mangaluru.
He reportedly came into contact with a woman identifying herself as Emilda William on WhatsApp. During their interactions, she told Poojary that she planned to start a cosmetics and hotel business in India and would meet him during a visit to Mangaluru.
On April 7, Emilda sent Poojary a flight ticket from London to Delhi via WhatsApp. The following day, Poojary received a phone call from a woman who informed him that Emilda had arrived at Delhi airport carrying a demand draft worth Rs 5 crore along with other items. The caller allegedly asked him to pay Rs 70,000.
Subsequently, Poojary also received a call from Emilda, who was reportedly crying and spoke about the situation. Believing the claims, he transferred a total of Rs 1,13,300 in phases using a scanner. He later realised that he had been cheated.
