Uddhav Thackeray Faction Rules Out Another Mass Defection

Deccan Chronicle  

Mumbai: Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena on Friday dismissed reports of yet another split in the party. The party accused the Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena faction of spreading rumours regarding defections in the party in order to divert people’s attention from the Mahayuti government’s failures in Maharashtra. Shiv Sena minister Uday Samant claimed that many leaders from the Uddhav Thackeray camp would soon join the Shiv Sena under Eknath Shinde’s leadership. Mr Shinde is the leader of the real Shiv Sena and he is taking Balasaheb Thackeray’s ideology forward,” the Maharashtra minister said. The minister further said that around 12 leaders from the Maha Vikas Aghadi constituents, including the Shiv Sena, will join the Eknath Shinde-led party within the next three months.
