Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's son and MP Shrikant Shinde on Thursday denied Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut's allegations about a conspiracy targeting him.

Raut had alleged two days ago that Shrikant Shinde, who represents Kalyan Lok Sabha constituency, had given a `supari' (contract) to a Thane-based criminal to attack him.

Talking to the media at Ambernath in the district, Shinde said ?Raut suffers from "schizophrenia" and his ?allegations were baseless. He was much needed for the state as a "source of entertainment", Shinde added sarcastically.
