Amid row kickstarted by Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray over his bags checked by election commission officials on two consecutive days, a video surfaced on Wednesday (November 13) showing Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's bags checked in Palghar. However, unlike Uddhav Thackeray, Eknath Shinde appeared unfazed by his bags checked by the EC officials.

The video of Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde's bags checked in his chopper on Wednesday was shared by news agency ANI. Interestingly, video of Shinde's bags checked comes on the same day when the bags of Maharashtra Deputy Chief Ministers Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar were checked.

The whole row over checking of bags erupted after Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray objected to officials frisking his bags in Yavatmal and Latur on two consecutive days.

Uddhav had questioned the officials over the checking of his bags and asked the EC staff if bags of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah were checked.

Just a day after Uddhav's bags were checked for the second day in a row, videos of Deputy CMs Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Pawar 'willingly' getting thier bags checked surfaced on Wednesday (November 13). Finally, CM Shinde also met with the protocol with relative ease and nonchalance.

The ruling Mahayuti leaders happily let their bags getting checked by EC officials, which the poll body is entitled to, as it also let them make a statement against Uddhav Thackeray without doing much.
