'Allies Gained in MVA, Sena Weakened': Shinde's 4-Point Reply to Uddhav's Speech

Uddhav Thackeray in his address said that the party has not left the agenda of Hindutva despite being in the MVA.

Amid the political crisis in Maharashtra, stirred by the rebellion of several Shiv Sena MLAs, rebel leader Eknath Shinde, on Wednesday, 22 June, took to Twitter and claimed that the "MVA only benefitted allies" while the "Shiv Sena only weakened."

Following Uddhav Thackeray's address, Shinde tweeted a four-point rebuttal, saying that the Shiv Sena must get out of the "unnatural alliance". Shinde said -

"1. In two and a half years of the MVA, only the allies benefitted while the Shiv Sainiks were sidelined.

2. While the allies got stronger, the Shiv Sainiks and the Sena only weakened.

3. It is important to get out of this unnatural alliance to save the party.

4. Important to take a decision for Maharashtra."

३. पक्ष आणि शिवसैनिक टिकविण्यासाठी अनैसर्गिक आघाडीतून बाहेर पडणे अत्यावश्यक.

४. महाराष्ट्रहितासाठी आता निर्णय घेणे गरजेचे.#HindutvaForever
