Will Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray get what Balasaheb was able to do? Hindu Heart Emperor had said… Will Thackeray family leave Shiv Sena?
Mumbai: In Maharashtra politics, there is a test for Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray and Shiv Sena. Under the leadership of Eknath Shinde, the rebel MLAs have dealt a major blow not only to the Mahavikas Aghadi but also to the Shiv Sena. On all these developments, Uddhav Thackeray on Wednesday presented his role to the whole of Maharashtra through Facebook Live. Chief Minister Thackeray said that if any Shiv Sena MLA came forward and asked him to resign, he would resign at that moment. Uddhav Thackeray said that he was also ready to resign from the post of Shiv Sena chief. After Uddhav Thackeray’s statement yesterday, many remembered the statement made by Balasaheb Thackeray 30 years ago. Balasaheb Thackeray, the founder of Shiv Sena, had said in 1992 that the entire Thackeray family, including me, would leave Shiv Sena. Let’s find out what happened then.
The reason why the disgruntled MLAs of Shiv Sena have now revolted. In it, Uddhav Thackeray does not meet anyone, and he also demands that Shiv Sena should leave the Mahavikas Aghadi. Balasaheb Thackeray was similarly criticized in 1992. At that time, Madhav Deshpande had questioned Balasaheb and his working methods. Deshpande Uddhav and Raj Thackeray were also attacked. Deshpande had alleged that Uddhav and Raj were interfering in the party’s decision. Balasaheb had written an article from the match after such allegations were leveled against the family. Even if a Shiv Sainik is against me or my family and he is saying that I am leaving the party because of you, I will leave the presidency of Shiv Sena at this very moment. My whole family left Shiv Sena.
Balasaheb Thackeray’s article caused a stir. Shiv Sainiks started agitation, some threatened to commit suicide. After that article, a different campaign started in which an attempt was made to persuade Balasaheb. Shiv Sena cannot exist without you. Outside the Shiv Sena Bhavan, lakhs of Shiv Sainiks started chanting slogans in support of Balasaheb. No one raised a voice against the Shiv Sena after the 1992 incident. Now it seems that Uddhav Thackeray has once again tried to unite the party by showing readiness to resign. Now the question remains whether Uddhav Thackeray will succeed like Balasaheb? We had to wait a few days to get an answer.
