Mumbai Rains, IMD Weather Forecast Mumbai Highlights: Eknath Shinde cabinet today has approved the renaming of Aurangabad to Chattrapati Sambhajinagar and Osmanabad to Dharashiv. Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde had said on Friday that the previous Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government’s decision to rename Aurangabad, when it had been reduced to minority, was illegal, and will be ratified in the Cabinet meeting presided by him.
The Uddhav Thackeray-led MVA government had announced the renaming of Aurangabad in central Maharashtra as “Sambhajinagar” — after Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s elder son Chhatrapati Sambhaji — during its last cabinet meeting on June 29, hours before Thackeray resigned.
