Gen-Z will not forgive us if we fail to reunite: Sena (UBT)

After resistance from second-rung leaders of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) about the possible reunion between their party and Shiv Sena (UBT), the Uddhav Thackeray faction of Sena on Monday urged them to let bygones be bygones and make a fresh start, in the interest of future generations.

MUMBAI: Raj Thackeray, MNS chief, who is on vacation to London, on the other hand, told his partymen not to speak on the issue till his return on April 30.

Taking the idea of the reunion a step further, through its editorial of the party mouthpiece 'Saamana' titled, 'Maharashtrala Aankhi Kay Have', the Thackeray faction of Sena expressed the need for the estranged cousins to come together and lauded Raj for continuously speaking in the interest of Marathi language. The editorial also underlined how Raj had in the past raised his voice against anti-Maharashtra politics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah but "later he got trapped in the fake Hindutva politics of BJP".
