"I am a Jee Huzur man. Whenever asked to step down (by High Command) I oblige. I left power(as Chief Minister of Maharashtra) once and Vilasrao Deshmukh did it twice. Both of us are 'Jee Huzur'," said Shinde addressing a Congress workers' rally at Latur, the home town of former Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh.
