Political Changes in Maharashtra After Sachin Ahir Joins Eknath Shinde's Party
Sachin Ahir 加入 Eknath Shinde 政黨後，馬哈拉施特拉邦的政治變動
Introduction
The Shiv Sena (UBT) has lost some of its power in the legislature after Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) Sachin Ahir left the party to join the Shiv Sena led by Eknath Shinde.
在立法會議員 (MLC) Sachin Ahir 離開該黨並加入由 Eknath Shinde 領導的 Shiv Sena 後，Shiv Sena (UBT) 在立法機關中失去部分權力。
Main Body
Sachin Ahir's move to the Shinde faction became official on Tuesday. At the same time, he was nominated for the position of deputy chairperson of the state legislative council. This move is supported by the Mahayuti alliance, which includes the BJP, the Shinde-led Shiv Sena, and the NCP. Because this coalition has a majority, it is very likely that Ahir will be elected on July 1. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde emphasized that anti-defection laws do not apply here, as Ahir was originally elected to the house as a member of the Shiv Sena in 2022.
Sachin Ahir 加入 Shinde 陣營的決定於週二正式生效。同時，他被提名為邦立法會副主席。此舉得到了 Mahayuti 聯盟的支持，該聯盟包括 BJP、Shinde 領導的 Shiv Sena 及 NCP。由於該聯盟擁有多數席位，Ahir 極有可能在 7 月 1 日當選。副首席部長 Eknath Shinde 強調，由於 Ahir 在 2022 年最初是以 Shiv Sena 成員身份當選進入議會，因此此處不適用反跳槽法。
In the past, Ahir worked with the Indian National Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party. He joined Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena in 2019 to help Aaditya Thackeray win the Worli seat. Consequently, his decision to join the Shinde faction may make it harder for Aaditya Thackeray to win future elections. This event follows a trend of members leaving the Sena (UBT), including six Members of Parliament who recently joined Shinde's group.
過去，Ahir 曾與印度國民大會黨及國民會議黨合作。他於 2019 年加入 Uddhav Thackeray 的 Shiv Sena，協助 Aaditya Thackeray 贏得 Worli 選區的席位。因此，他決定加入 Shinde 陣營，可能會使 Aaditya Thackeray 在未來的選舉中更難獲勝。此事件延續了成員離開 Sena (UBT) 的趨勢，包括近期有六名國會議員加入 Shinde 的團隊。
Furthermore, tensions have appeared within the BJP. Uddhav Thackeray claimed that the BJP's central leaders are trying to limit the power of Devendra Fadnavis to prevent him from becoming a future leader. He asserted that Eknath Shinde is following orders to reduce Fadnavis's influence. However, Shinde rejected these claims, stating that they are not true and pointing to old disagreements between Fadnavis and the Thackeray family.
此外，BJP 內部也出現了緊張局勢。Uddhav Thackeray 聲稱，BJP 的中央領導層正試圖限制 Devendra Fadnavis 的權力，以防止他成為未來的領導人。他斷言 Eknath Shinde 正遵循指示以削弱 Fadnavis 的影響力。然而，Shinde 否認了這些指控，表示這並非事實，並指出這是 Fadnavis 與 Thackeray 家族之間的舊有分歧。
Conclusion
The Shiv Sena (UBT) continues to lose its members, while the Mahayuti alliance becomes stronger by attracting former opposition politicians.
Shiv Sena (UBT) 繼續失去成員，而 Mahayuti 聯盟透過吸引前反對黨政治人物，變得更加強大。
