Uddhav Thackeray: A shy politician who tried bold gamble of forming coalition with unlikely allies
Millennium Post Delhi|Delhi 30 June 2022
Very few people would have thought before the 2019 Assembly elections that Uddhav Thackeray had it in him to sever the ties with the old ally BJP, and become chief minister of Maharashtra as the head of an unlikely coalition with the NCP and Congress.
Uddhav Thackeray: A shy politician who tried bold gamble of forming coalition with unlikely allies

Two and a half years later, 62-year-old Thackeray's innings as chief minister came to an end after Eknath Shinde, a senior Shiv Sena leader, rebelled against him and a majority of Sena MLAs joined the rebel camp.

Whatever I do, whether I desire it or not.... I do it with determination, Thackeray had said during his Facebook Live on June 22.

This determination has been a constant all through his political career that saw Shiv Sena witnessing ups and downs since he first took over as the acting president and party chief after his father Bal Thackeray's death in 2012.

The youngest son of Bal Thackeray, Uddhav, also known as 'Digga', started helping his father in the party affairs in the early 1990s.
