Digital Desk: Five months after leading a rebellion against Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena from Guwahati, Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde will head a 200-member team to the Assam capital today and offer prayers at the renowned Kamakhya Devi temple "to thank the goddess for her blessings."

Reportedly, Shinde is travelling on a special flight from Mumbai to Guwahati with 40 MLAs and MPs. Deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis is expected to join the chief minister, reports said. 

Shinde is anticipated to visit the temple at around 2 pm. They will stay at the Radisson Blu and will return to Mumbai after breakfast the next morning.

In June, when he was camping in Guwahati, Shinde visited the Kamakhya temple along with the rebel MLAs.

"It is our Hindu custom that we pray to God that we will visit again,'' he said.
