Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi (VBA) chief Prakash Ambedkar on Thursday said it was now for Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray to finalize an alliance with his party.

He also denied that the VBA could form a tie-up with the rival Eknath Shinde-led faction of the Sena, saying that he would not join hands with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its allies.
