“Ghodi saji thi. Dulha taiyar tha. Baraati naach rahe the. Ek ‘Nath’ peeche se dhakka diya. Ghodi parbaith gaye Dulha replaced. The horse was ready, the bridegroom was ready. People were dancing. One ‘Nath’ came from behind, puched the bridegroom and took his place (roughly translated),” Sanjay Singh tweeted.
Let us inform that Eknath Shinde, who broke Shiv Sena, took oath as the Chief Minister of Maharashtra on Thursday. Along with him, BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis also took oath as the Deputy CM.
