Mumbai, Sep 13 (PTI) Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday met Union Home Minister Amit Shah at the Sahyadri Guest House here during the latter’s brief visit to the city.
The meeting lasted nearly 30 minutes, Shinde’s aide said.
The meeting comes in the backdrop of the ongoing Maratha quota agitation, with activist Manoj Jarange announcing an indefinite hunger strike in Mumbai starting September 19.
The Shinde-led Shiv Sena is a key coalition partner of the BJP in the Mahayuti government.
Shah arrived in Mumbai earlier in the day to address an event at the Asiatic Society and is also scheduled to attend a function organised by the Gems and Jewellery Export Promotion Council. PTI PR ARU
