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.
Rajan Salvi was defeated in the 2024 Maharashtra assembly elections and lost to Eknath Shinde-led MLA Kiran Samant, from Rajapur assembly constituency in the coastal Konkan region.
M S Bhuvanachandran, founder of Shiv Sena’s Kerala unit, has left the party following disenchantment with the style of working of Uddhav Thackeray.
Shiv Sena (UBT) has unilaterally announced that the party will go solo in the upcoming nagar panchayat, nagar parishad, zilla parishad and municipal corporation elections. Party MP Sanjay Raut announced this here on Saturday.
Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut is well known for criticising the BJP and Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis regularly, but he ended up praising Fadnavis on Friday in Mumbai, surprising several political observers.
The plea also challenges the appointment of Ajay Chaudhary as the Shiv Sena's legislative leader in the House in place of Shinde.
Attacking the group of MLAs who are currently in Guwahati hotel, Aaditya Thackeray said it is good that some dirt has gone away from the party.
The leader, however, added that there was no response from the Chief Minister which is why Eknath Shinde, who is leading the faction, "took a stand".
The petition has been filed by Ajay Choudhari, who was appointed "legislative party leader" after Shinde was "removed" from the post by the Shiv Sena.
Asking the leaders of his party to tell him if he is "useless and incapable" to run the party, he said that he will separate himself from the party.
