A day after the Shiv Sena voted in favour of the Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) in Lok Sabha and faced the wrath of the Congress, its new ally in Maharashtra, the Uddhav Thackeray-led party said on Tuesday that it wanted the CAB draft to be incorporated with the suggestions it had made but were ignored while the bill was passed in the lower house.

CAB will be tabled in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday. But will Sena's U-turn affect the outcome as it has only three MPs in the upper house. Insiders said the Sena chief and Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray's posturing was an afterthought to placate the Congress, which is a partner in the Maharashtra government. The Sena was at the receiving end from Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Husain Dalwai and others.
