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 BJP and the rival Sena camp later formed the government and Eknath Shinde took oath as the chief minister, with former CM Devendra Fadnavis taking over as his deputy.
Thackeray said, "On one hand they read Hanuman Chalisa and on other hand, they go to mosques & listen Qawali, is this their Hindutva?"
The Chief Minister said that thousands of party workers and devotees of Lord Ram were present when he arrived in Lucknow on Saturday.
The police are questioning the detained person. Mumbai Police said that the detainee used Lawrence Bishnoi's name and his connection with the gangster will be probed.
"Veer Savarkar is our God, and any disrespect towards him will not be tolerated. We are prepared to fight, but insulting our Gods is not something we will tolerate," the Shiv Sena (UBT) chief said.
