Thackeray visited the state legislature, where he personally handed over the letter to Narwekar. During his visit, he also interacted with opposition MLAs, including NCP (SP) leaders Jitendra Awhad and Jayant Patil, reaffirming the unity of the Maha Vikas Aghadi.
“Today, we have submitted a letter to the Speaker naming Bhaskar Jadhav as our choice for Leader of Opposition. I hope that, in keeping with democratic values, a decision will be taken soon, ensuring that the state has a Leader of Opposition during this budget session,” Thackeray stated.
