'Shav' means corpse in Marathi.
Tweeting a video clip of Devendra Fadnavis' interview on Bihar polls, she said, "What is going on exactly? The Shav Sena did kill its own colleague (Congress) in Bihar.
"No matter where they are taking Maharashtra, but thanks for putting Bihar at right place," she tweeted.
Most of the Sena candidates lost deposits in the Bihar polls, while the Congress, which fought in alliance with the Rashtriya Janata Dal, too performed poorly.
The Sena and Congress are part of the ruling coalition in Maharashtra.
