Eknath Shinde: EC Decision To Allot ‘Bow and Arrow’ Symbol To Us Victory Of Truth

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday said the Election Commission’s decision to allot his faction of the Shiv Sena the “bow and arrow” election symbol was a victory of truth.

While addressing a Shivaji Jayanti function in Agra in Uttar Pradesh Sunday evening, Eknath Shinde said, “The majority has a weightage in democracy and the truth has prevailed”, on the Election Commission decision.

Further, he said his faction got the “bow and arrow” symbol because of the blessings of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj.

“It was a historic day for the followers of Shivaji Maharaj to celebrate his Jayanti at the Agra Fort. At Diwan-e-Aam, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj used strong words against Mughal emperor Aurangzeb and managed to move back to Maharashtra”, Mr. Shinde added.

Maharashtra Chief Minister was in Agra to attend the 393rd birth anniversary celebrations of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, the 17th-century Maratha ruler, at the Diwan-e-Aam of the Agra Fort. It was organized by Ajinkya Deogiri Pratisthan, a social and cultural organization, in collaboration with the Cultural Department of Maharashtra.

He thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for allowing the celebrations at the Agra Fort.

Union ministers Raosaheb Patil Danve and S P Singh Baghel also attended the celebrations.
