In a big disappointment to Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena faction, party founder Bala Thackeray’s son Jaidev Thackeray on Wednesday extended support to his brother’s rival and Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
Jaidev, who shares an uneasy relationship with his younger brother Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray, shared the stage with Shinde during Dussehra rally at Mumbai’s BKC ground on Wednesday evening. Jaidev’s estranged wife Smita was also present there along with Nihar, the son of late Bindumadhav Thackeray, Uddhav Thackeray’s eldest brother.
Champa Singh Thapa, a trusted aide of the late Bal Thackeray, was also present at the event.
A parallel Dussehra rally was organised by the Uddhav Thackeray-led faction at Shivaji Park in central Mumbai.
Both Shinde and Uddhav Thackeray claim their faction is the “real” Shiv Sena. The two camps came into existence after Shinde rebelled against Thackeray and engineered a split in the Sena.
