Uddhav Thackeray Offers To Resign As UBT Sena Chief, Calls Rebel MPs 'Traitors' | BREAKING | News18
Added:Now getting some more breaking update from Maharashtra amid turmoil in UBT faction. Both the camps are trading barbs against each other. Today both factions hosted separate events to celebrate parties' 60th foundation day.
Uddhav Thackeray while speaking at the event said that he is ready to resign from the party's chief post if the workers and the leaders do not have any trust in him. However, he struck a defiant note asserting that his workers remain confident and that he was ready to face any challenge as long as he had the support of Shiv Sena. Also, no rebel MPs attended event hosted by Uddhav camp. On the other hand, Eknath Shinde hinted at further UBT defection while reaffirming his party's commitment to Marathi identity and its six-decade legacy. Addressing party workers and supporters, Shinde declared, "This is just the trailer, the full movie yet to come."
All right, so today is the 60th anniversary of Shiv Sena and we saw both the faction, one of course led by Uddhav Thackeray and the second one is led by Deputy Chief Minister of Maharashtra Eknath Shinde celebrated had a different programs in two different areas of Maharashtra and we heard Uddhav Thackeray of course making that pitch saying that if Shiv Sena want him to step aside, he's ready for that but he will fight any challenge come in his way. Yesha Kotak has been joining us on this story. She's been tracking this story. Yesha, we saw two different programs by two different factions of Shiv Sena. Tell us about who was managed to pull more crowd.
>> So yes, absolutely. You know, in fact when you speak of this very event, it was clearly a Shinde versus Thackeray event that took place today and more so of course you know when you speak of Shanmukhananda Hall it was closed space and as compared to the which is again a closed space.
So you know as compared to the seating capacity Shanmukhananda has the greatest seating capacity but when it comes to the kind of leaders that came in attendance it was of course Shinde who had you know a larger team of leaders you know being present with him and more so you know when you speak of followers clearly you know Shanmukhananda had a bigger seating capacity so in that case it was it was the Thackerays who had a larger crowd but you know when you speak of um the headline as to who pulled the the headline in the speeches I mean so what it was clearly Uddhav Thackeray with him calling out uh giving this call that he is willing to resign if that's what people want.
However to counter to it what's you know what has been put forth is that uh the Shinde and other leaders have clearly said that uh that um those leaders who really cannot deliver should have resigned long time back instead of just calling out uh the fact that they would want to resign. In fact you've seen how um Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde pulled up several of the issues pertaining to this it's in fact the first time that he's spoken ever since the bars of Operation Tiger uh because clearly last time around when there was a cabinet meeting uh Deputy Chief Minister Shinde decided to not speak on it.
>> Mhm.
>> Um this time around right from uh the statement that Uddhav Thackeray had said asking people that if they want to leave they could leave um to also you know calling himself tiger and calling um uh you know calling the pack of uh of uh UBD as dogs he's really wanted to say that the tiger was hunted by alone clearly indicating that um that you know the Operation Tiger has been more or less successful.
Um of course you know, there's been certain uh um certain things that have been taken towards my my because of that he as well.
You know, comparing the fact that >> And interestingly Yasha, he also said this that this is just a trailer, movie is yet to come. Thank you so much meanwhile for joining us and sharing all the latest update.
