<p>"I have written a letter to Saamana editor to Uddhav ji, not as a political leader. I have made my displeasure clear to him. This is not good and if it continues, I will have no choice but to call your party Penguin Sena. I was expecting better behaviour, which unfortunately I couldn't find in many years in the Shiv Sena. If they don&rsquo;t stop, till the corporation election I will make them Penguin Sena. That is my job to give tit for tat," he further added.&nbsp;</p>
