Hours after Sanjay Raut said rebel MLAs camping in Guwahati are living corpses, Eknath Shinde said they will consider death as their destiny to save Shiv Sena from the MVA.

Earlier in the day, Raut said 40 MLAs in Guwahati are living corpses, their souls are dead. "Their bodies will be sent directly to the Assembly for post-mortem when they come back. They know what can happen in the fire that has been lit here," he had said.
