Power struggle in Maharashtra: Uddhav admitted- Shinde had said that Congress-NCP are destroying us, MLAs want to go with BJP

Uddhav Thackeray held a two-hour meeting with Sharad Pawar on Friday evening amid the ongoing political crisis in Maharashtra for the last three days. After this he addressed the corporators of Shiv Sena. Thackeray said that a few days ago when I suspected a rebellion, I called Eknath Shinde and said that do your duty to take Shiv Sena forward, it is not right to do so.

He told me that NCP-Congress is trying to eliminate us and MLAs want us to go with BJP. I told him to bring the MLAs who want to do this to me. The BJP, which has defamed our party, my family, is the one you are talking about going with. Such a question does not arise. If MLAs want to go there, they can all go. I won’t stop If anyone wants to go, be it MLA or anyone else. Come and tell us and then go.
