The development of Aurangabadis the most important aspect and a decision on renaming it'Sambahjinagar' will be taken unanimously by the ruling MahaVikas Aghadi constituents, Shiv Sena leader and Maharashtraminister Aaditya Thackeray said on Saturday.
The Sena, which has been a votary of the name change,is facing opposition from its MVA ally Congress, while the BJPhas been attacking the Uddhav Thackeray-led party claiming itwas forsaking its old demands just to remain in power.
In the city to inaugurate a garbage processing plant,command control room and cycle track built by the AurangabadSmart City Development Corporation Limited, Thackeray said ''weare focusing on changing the face of Aurangabad city''.
''The decision of renaming the city will be takenunanimously by the MVA government in the state,'' he asserted.
Against the backdrop of members of Bharatiya JanataYuva Morcha (BJYM), the youth wing of the BJP, putting up'Namaste Sambhajinagar' signboards in some places in the city,Thackeray said its former ally did nothing about the namechange when they were in power in the state for five years.
