Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Nirupam on Sunday said that the people of Maharashtra have decisively rejected Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) and the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) after realising that these parties are only interested in selfish agendas for power, which they concealed under the facade of commitment for the state.

According to news agency PTI, Nirupam accused the Shiv Sena (UBT) of straying from the ideology of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray amid the buzz that Uddhav Thackeray and his estranged cousin Raj Thackeray – who heads MNS – are ready to mend fences.
