		In spite of so many common traits, both Deshmukh and Bhujbal come from different social backgrounds, Deshmukh belongs to the feudal order which is equivalent to the ruler of a pargana or a taluka while Bhujbal is an OBC, a “Mali” (gardener).
		While Deshmukh is a product of the Congress — a protege of former Home Minister S.B. Chavan, Bhujbal began his political career in the Shivsena under the patronage of Bal Thackeray and became an activist.
		A science graduate with a law degree from Pune, Deshmukh began his career as panchayat chief in Latur district, which was part of erstwhile Nizam’s princely state and acquired long experience in public life.

		Deshmukh failed to take the hint and paid for it with his job.

	Has Bhujbal really left the Sena?
		Of course, neither the prime minister-in-eternal-waiting Sharad Pawar nor Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh or their deputy in different spheres, Chhagan Bhujbal, will buy that outcome, and instead crow that their point has been proved.
		But let us not treat such outpourings as dismissively as we would normally do, and look instead at just what it was that this trio has achieved by their supposedly brilliant strategy.
		So Deshmukh did the smartest thing: he went along with Bhujbal's game plan, despite knowing that it was doomed from the start, for the simple reason that the blame for failure would attach to the originator of the scheme, the deputy CM, and not to him.
