Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde visited Guwahati, Assam, to pray at the Kamakhya Devi Temple, an important religious site. This visit comes just before the assembly elections on November 20, making it strategically significant. Shinde plans to perform his prayers at the temple on Wednesday. This isn’t his first visit; he previously came in June 2022 with 39 rebel MLAs during a political crisis that led to the fall of Uddhav Thackeray’s government. Shinde became Chief Minister on June 30, 2022, with support from the BJP, and returned to the temple in November 2022 for blessings. As elections approach, Shinde’s party, the Shiv Sena, has yet to announce its candidates.
