The ceremony for naming three tiger cubs triggered a political row in Maharashtra after a chit apparently carrying the name 바카라Aditya' was taken back and replaced with another one.
The Maharashtra Opposition leaders linked the name to Aaditya Thackeray, who was a minister in the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi government that collapsed last year after a rebellion by present Chief Minister Eknath Shinde resulted in an acrimonious split in the Shiv Sena, PTI report said.
The incident, as per the report, unfolded in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar city when Chief Minister Shinde, his Deputy Ajit Pawar and state forest minister Sudhir Mungantiwar were invited to a function to name two male and one female tiger cubs.
It mentioned after Shinde took out one chit from a glass bowl, visuals of the event showed, Ajit Pawar was requested to pick a chit from another container.
Later, Pawar showed the chit to someone.
바카라A voice in the background could then be heard saying 바카라it's Aditya바카라 and suggesting that Pawar should go for another,바카라 the report said.
Pawar picked a second chit and the name on it 바카라 Vikram 바카라 was read out, it said.
Later, it said the three cubs were finally named Shravani, Vikram and Kanha.
However, the chit apparently containing the name 바카라Aditya' gave a handle to opposition leaders to slam the Shinde government, it said.
Leader of the opposition in the legislative council Ambadas Danve and Shiv Sena (UBT) said, 바카라Whether from this world (referring to Aaditya Thackeray) or the sky (Sun is also called Aditya), no one can stop Aaditya. This government is even scared of his name,바카라 he said, it stated.
Later, Shinde downplayed a question on the naming row, it said.
바카라Two chits were pulled out simultaneously during the naming ceremony. Hence, one chit was kept aside. There is nothing more to this,바카라 he said, the report mentioned.
Mungantiwar said, 바카라Such petty issues should not be discussed. A cub born in the wild cannot be named, but the one born here in the zoo gets a name. We are not scared of any Aditya,바카라 he was quoted as having said.
Local MP and AIMIM leader Imtiaz Jaleel sarcastically said there was no need to choose any other names for the cubs, it said.
바카라The cubs could have been named Devendra, Ajit and Eknath.바카라 He called the episode 바카라low level of politics바카라. 바카라I do not want to make any further comment on this,바카라 he was quoted as having said.
