In a significant political development ahead of the BMC elections, the Thackeray cousins, Uddhav and Raj, have come together to release a joint manifesto, termed ‘Vachan Nama’. Addressing a press conference at Shiv Sena Bhavan, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) Chief Raj Thackeray remarked that visiting the headquarters felt like ‘coming out of jail after 20 years’, highlighting the emotional weight of the reunion. Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray attacked the ruling Mahayuti alliance, alleging a ‘vote stealing’ scam and criticizing the handling of illegal migrants. The manifesto promises a Marathi Mayor for Mumbai, financial assistance of ₹1,500 for women, and a focus on desalination projects to solve the city’s water crisis. The leaders emphasized the ‘Marathi Manus’ identity while countering the BJP’s Hindutva narrative.
