Uddhav’s Shiv Sena is driven by ‘greed for power’: Fadnavis

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Friday launched a sharp political attack on Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray, saying his party had been exposed by their political choices, driven by what he termed “greed for power.”

His comments came just days after Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray formally announced an alliance ahead of the upcoming civic body elections.

The CM’s veiled attack was also in reference to 2019 when Uddhav Thackeray broke alliance with BJP to join Congress and NCP to form Maha Vikas Aghadi and become CM of Maharashtra.

Fadnavis on Friday visited Gurdwara Guru Tegh Bahadur Darbar in Mumbai to offer prayers on the occasion of Veer Bal Diwas, observed to honour the courage and sacrifice of the Sahibzades of Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

Later speaking to media on political developments and the reunion of Thackerays, Fadnavis said their “true character has been exposed.”

“The people will see through your real nature and objective of politics. Uddhav Thackeray and his army ‘UBT’s true character and face have been revealed by whom they handed over the state to in their greed for power. If they ally with people who engage in anti-national, anti-religion and anti-humanity activities merely for vote appeasement, then the public will give them a befitting response,” Fadnavis said.

While exuding confidence that the BJP-led Mahayuti will emerge victorious in the upcoming BMC polls on the basis of development agenda, the CM said, “People will judge us through our work.”

Unfortunately, he said, “There are some who indulge in appeasement politics. Their sole concern is greed for power.”
