After this, in May 2022, Urban Development Minister Eknath Shinde in the MVA government rebelled with 39 MLAs and joined the BJP. Eknath Shinde took oath as the 20th Chief Minister of Maharashtra on 30 June 2022. With this, Shiv Sena split into two factions. One faction was Shinde faction and the other was Uddhav faction.
