Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has handed over portfolios of nine rebel ministers to other ministers.

An official statement noted that the portfolios of the rebel ministers were being handed over to other ministers for ease of administration.

Nine Maharashtra ministers have so far joined the rebel camp led by Eknath Shinde and are camping in a hotel in Assam.

The Sena now has four cabinet ministers, including CM Uddhav Thackeray, Aaditya Thackeray, Anil Parab, and Subhash Desai.

Barring Aaditya Thackeray, the rest three are MLCs.

In the tripartite Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government led by the Sena, the Uddhav Thackeray-led party had 10 Cabinet-rank ministers before the rebellion and four Ministers of State, including two from the Sena quota.

All the four MoS have joined the rebel camp in Guwahati.

Meanwhile, Enforcement Directorate (ED) has summoned Sena leader Sanjay Raut to appear on Tuesday in an alleged money laundering case.
