BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla launched a scathing attack on Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Monday, alleging that the latter has distanced himself from the ideology of his father, Balasaheb Thackeray, and embraced the political line followed by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.

According to ANI, Poonawalla's remarks came in response to a statement made by Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday, in which he claimed that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), after targeting Waqf properties, was now allegedly going after land belonging to Christians, Jains, Sikhs, and temples.
