CM Devendra Fadnavis not to move to official ‘Varsha’ residence?
Sanjay Raut, the Shiv Sena (UBT) leader claims that Devendra Fadnavis is not moving Into CM’s Official residence owing to
Superstition.
A grapevine has it that buffaloes allegedly slaughtered in Guwahati amidst Eknath Shinde’s visit to the Kamakhya temple were buried on the premises of `Varsha’ so that the CM’s post should not stay with anybody else other than Shinde, he said.

Sanjay Raut further goes on to add that
even if he moves there, he will not sleep there. What is this? The `limbu samrat, limbu mirchi’ (a reference to those who practise black magic) of the Shiv Sena should respond to this.
`Limbu’ (lemon) and `mirchi’ (chilli) are supposedly used by black magic practitioners. He has
heard there were discussions within the BJP that the horns of the buffaloes sacrificed in Guwahati were buried in the lawns of
Speaking to reporters he said that there is talk that the horns were brought to Varsha that the CM’s post should not stay with anyone else.
While there was no immediate reaction from the chief minister’s aides to Raut’s claims, Shiv Sena chief Eknath Shinde, now deputy CM, told reporters on a sarcastic note: “Raut is an expert in that field. He should know.”
In the past, Raut had alleged that buffaloes were slaughtered at Guwahati after Shinde revolted against Uddhav Thackeray and camped at a hotel in the Assam city with other rebel Shiv Sena MLAs before returning to Maharashtra and becoming chief minister by toppling the Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi government.
Raut, meanwhile, demanded an explanation from Fadnavis about why he was not moving to `Varsha’, a “pride of the state.”
Maharashtra is a progressive state with a tradition of social reformers like Mahatma Phule, Prabodhankar Thackeray and Gadge Maharaj who assailed superstitions, he said, adding that yet superstition has now taken over the corridors of power.
