Uddhav Thackeray, the Ex. Maharashtra CM and former Shiv Sena chief is going through the most challenging time ever in his political career.
In a latest big blow to Uddhav Thackeray, the Election Commission has allotted the name 'Shiv Sena' and its poll symbol' bow and arrow' to the Shiv Sena's rebel breakaway group led by incumbent Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.
The development comes at a crucial time when the Uddhav Thackeray faction of Shiv Sena is going through its most challenging time as the party was never at such a lowest point as it has been after the June 2022 incident where Eknath Shinde (A tall Shiv Sena leader), the urban development minister in the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), the coalition Govt. of Shiv Sena, NCP, and Congress, had triggered an upright split in the Shiv Sena and walked out with 39 of 56 MLAs and 13 of 19 Lok Sabha MPs and joined hands with the BJP to form the Government in Maharashtra.
