Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde commented on the recent incident involving an attack on Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy, stating that it was a retaliation by Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) workers. The attack, involving the hurling of coconuts and cow dung, occurred in Thane on Saturday and was allegedly in response to a previous incident where workers of Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena (UBT) had attacked MNS chief Raj Thackeray's car with betel nuts in Beed district, reported ANI. 

Reportedly, on Friday, Sena (UBT) fans threw 'supari' or betel nuts at the motorcade of Raj Thackeray, Uddhav's estranged cousin, in Beed.
