NDTV
Santosh Bangar, late last night, went to the hotel in Mumbai where the new Chief Minister is staying with MLAs backing him, and officially defected to the rival camp.
A night before Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's test of strength, one more Shiv Sena MLA belonging to team Thackeray joined him, adding to what was already a sure-shot majority. The MLA, Santosh Bangar, had publicly wept in support of Uddhav Thackeray a little over a week ago. आज मतदारसंघांमध्ये परत आल्यानंतर उपस्थित शिवसैनिकांना संबोधित करताना अश्रू अनावर झाले....शेवटच्या श्वासापर्यंत आदरणीय शिवसेना पक्षप्रमुख #उद्धव_ठाकरे साहेबा सोबत. @ShivSena@AUThackeraypic.twitter.com/loMHpUI4cL

Eknath Shinde easily won the trust vote today, days after his revolt that brought down the government led by Uddhav Thackeray, the Shiv Sena chief.
On June 24, when Uddhav Thackeray was fighting to keep MLAs from joining Eknath Shinde's rebel group, Santosh Bangar had posted a video addressing people in his constituency, weeping with folded hands in support of Mr Thackeray.
