Maharashtra deputy chief minister Eknath Shinde is reportedly in touch with a group of Shiv Sena (UBT) Lok Sabha MPs for 'Operation Tiger,' potentially leading to another split. This move, if successful, could significantly weaken Uddhav Thackeray's faction and bolster the NDA's parliamentary strength. Shiv Sena (UBT) leaders have dismissed the reports, dubbing the alleged move 'Operation Wolf'.
