Uddhav Thackeray is unhappy with BJP's overtures to MNS

  • 5 years ago
Narendra Modi called up Uddhav Thackeray, the head of the Shiv Sena, on Tuesday evening as the the BJP attempted to reassure him that their 25-year-old alliance is a priority and not in danger.

As part of that outreach, Rajiv Pratap Rudy, a senior BJP leader who is in charge of Maharashtra, met Mr Thackeray at his Mumbai home this evening.

"We met Mr Thackeray at his residence Matoshree; the meeting was held in an amicable environment. I want to say that Shiv Sena is an indestructible part of the NDA," Mr Rudy said.

The Sena chief is smarting over the BJP's recent expression of interest in his estranged cousin, Raj Thackeray, who heads the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena or MNS. Without joining the BJP's alliance of five parties in Maharashtra, Raj Thackeray has agreed to back Mr Modi, who is the BJP's prime ministerial candidate.
