For the first time in 30 years, the Thackerays will face a challenge in Worli from rival political parties. A three-sided attack on Uddhav Thackeray’s Shiv Sena is expected in Worli. Along with BJP and Shinde-led Shiv Sena, now MNS is trying to strengthen itself in the area to break UBT Sena’s monopoly. Aaditya Thackeray is the MLA from Worli.

While two former corporators owing allegiance to Uddhav Thackeray have now joined Chief Minister Eknath Shinde’s Shiv Sena, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) has started strengthening itself in Worli. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) also has the Worli constituency on its target. The two former corporators are Datta Narvankar (Worli Jijamata Nagar) and Santosh Kharat (Worli BDD chawl).
