Mumbai, August 21 (PTI) — On Thursday, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader Raj Thackeray held a meeting with Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, sparking widespread speculation within the state's political circles.
The meeting follows a significant defeat in the BEST Employees' Co-operative Credit Society elections, where the first-ever joint electoral bid by Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena (UBT) and Raj Thackeray's MNS failed to secure a single position.
Chief Minister Fadnavis had earlier accused the two parties of attempting to politicize the credit society elections by leveraging the "Thackeray brand."
There are ongoing discussions about a potential alliance between the Shiv Sena (UBT) and the MNS for the upcoming local body elections in Maharashtra.
