The Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena continues to bleed due to 'Operation Tiger' after Sindhudurg district Sena chief Sanjay Padte resigned from his post on Tuesday.
BJP Member of Legislative Council (MLC) Pravin Darekar, who is known to be a confidante of Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, said in Mumbai on Friday that not a single MLA will be left in Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena, if Aaditya Thackeray begins to monitor the movements of his MPs and MLAs, to prevent them from defecting.
Shiv Sena Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut on Saturday said if INDIA bloc partners -- the Congress and the AAP -- had allied, the outcome of the Delhi assembly elections would have been very different.
