Shiv Sena has said in its mouthpiece Saamana that Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh got the high-profile post only because senior NCP leaders Jayant Patil and Dileep Wales Patil had refused to accept it.

Not only has Shiv Sena hit out at the home minister, but also commented on how the Anil Deshmukh’s office carries a certain dignity and special status.

The Saamana article didn’t stop at that and further talked about how former Maharashtra Home Minister and NCP leader RR Patil drew focus on his style of working, which was widely appreciated by everyone.
