In December last year, during the visit of Pakistani Interior Minister Rehman Malik, BJP leader Yashwant Sinha had hit out at Shinde for "not responding appropriately" to Malik's controversial remarks about 26/11 Mumbai attacks' mastermind Hafiz Saeed and the Babri Masjid issue.
Malik had compared the 2008 Mumbai attacks with the demolition of Babri Masjid in Ayodhya in 1992.
However, he later claimed that his statement had been misunderstood.
