Ahead of Lok Sabha elections 2024, many office-bearers of the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) have resigned in protest after their party chief Raj Thackeray declared support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance in the state, reported news agency PTI.

MNS general secretary Kirtikumar Shinde, one of those who have quit, took to Facebook to explain his decision.
