The Shiv Sena (Uddhav Bal Thackeray) faction led by Uddhav Thackeray and his estranged cousin Raj Thackeray, who heads the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS), have now joined hands to protest against what they describe as the “imposition” of Hindi in Maharashtra’s school curriculum.
Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut announced the estranged cousins’ joint cause on X, sharing an old photo of the duo with the caption: “A united march will take place against the imposition of Hindi in schools in Maharashtra. Jai Maharashtra!”
This comes after the two political parties made parallel announcements; however, they will now lead a joint march on July 5 at Girgaon Chowpatty in Mumbai.
