At a public rally at Worli’s Jambori Maidan, MNS Chief Raj Thackeray criticised Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray for forming a government with Congress after contesting the elections in alliance with the BJP. He urged Worli voters to ‘take revenge’ for the betrayal of their votes.

During Wednesday’s rally, Raj Thackeray notably refrained from speaking against the Mahayuti coalition. He clarified his support for Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2024, saying, “I backed Modi this time for his vision. In 2019, I opposed him because he mirrored Congress’s approach. But after Modi abolished Article 370 and built the Ram Mandir, I supported him again, not for personal gain or any post.” He emphasised that this was not ‘role reversal,’ adding, “However, forming a government with Congress after contesting with the BJP is an insult to the voters who voted against Congress.”
