Speaking to the media in the national capital, he reiterated that the MLAs backing him are the real Shiv Sena.
SUNVILLA SAMACHAR Editorial
SUNVILLA SAMACHAR
Uddhav Thackeray Is Right In Calling For Fresh Polls In Maharashtra Uddhav Thackeray’s challenge to the man who replaced him, Eknath Shinde, to hold freshelections in Maharashtra hasn’t elicited response, and likely would not because the Shinde-Fadnavis dispensation cannot for all the money in the BJP’s war-chest hazard a guess onwhich alliance will win the civic body elections, which is where the next test of strength willbe on display.The floor test Shinde won with relative ease —165 to 99. But there still remains anotherSupreme Court test before the Shinde-Fadnavis regime can breathe easier though it isunlikely that the top court will disturb the new status quo. That leaves only the civic bodyelections and even a child in Maharashtra knows who has been calling the shots there,without doubt the Shiv Sena.But it’s the state elections that Uddhav Thackeray wants. Thackeray believes the ordinaryShiv Sainiks continue to be with the Shiv Sena of Balasaheb Thackeray, and no wannabeusurper will be able to take it away from the Thackeray family; definitely not an “auto-rickshaw driver” who stabbed the Thackerays in the back, the first chance he got.The feeling in the Thackeray camp is that Eknath Shinde and Devendra Fadnavis must havebeen planning the “betrayal” for weeks if not months. The mistake was that UddhavThackeray could never have imagined that somebody who had been elevated to prominencein the Shiv Sena over a lot many others would renege against the family.The Thackeray camp believes punishment is due to Eknath Shinde and his band of rebels.And the best just desserts for chameleons, who had like rats deserted what they thoughtwas a sinking shop, is to be booted out in fresh elections. And ordinary Shiv sainiks, thosewho control the streets will deliver the parting shot to these breakaway leaders.Uddhav Thackeray is not only smarting from the betrayal, he is also fuming at the verythought that the rebels want to get a hold of the party and the party’s bow-andarrow electionsymbol. That would be adding insult to humiliation, and there couldn’t be a bigger betrayal inthe land of Shivaji!Uddhav Thackeray was caught on the wrong foot when Shinde made the midnight escape toSurat along with a suite of MLAs. By the time he caught on, it was to late, the rebels werein enemy territory. Now, after all the dramatics is so much water in the Brahmaputra, Uddhavis asking Eknath why he waited “two and half years”, which is not what “respectful people”do.Uddhav Thackeray should know, at least now, that Shinde is no gentleman in white flannels.Thackeray can’t appeal to the honest and fair in an “auto-rickshaw driver”. Shinde will makea hard try for the party symbol. And Uddhav Thackeray knows this, too. Therefore, the foreboding, and the repeated assertions that "no one can take the bow and arrow symbolfrom the Shiv Sena.”But it is not so easy for even Shinde, the Thane strongman, now also Chief Minister. UddhavThackeray is no run of the mill party president. He is a Thackeray, and is “life President” ofthe Shiv Sena, just like Balasaheb Thackeray was. No ornery Shiv Sainik can brush Uddhavaside and pluck his way to the top.There is another difference that works in favour of Uddhav Thackeray and that has to do with‘Hindutva’. A lot has been written and spoken about how Uddhav Thackeray, for the love ofpower, dumped Hindutva and embraced the secular. And that Shinde & Co., rebelledbecause of this betrayal, which Uddhav has denied with all the vehemence at his command.And Thackeray has his backers who argue that there are solid reasons why the Shiv Sena’s‘Hindutva’ is different from the BJP’s ‘Hindutva’. Balasaheb’s ‘Hindutva’ was always “pro” —pro-Marathi manoos; pro-Shivaji, and pro-India, whereas the BJP’s ‘Hindutva’ is rooted in the‘anti’ — anti-Muslim, anti-Secular… Therefore for Eknath Shinde to say that UddhavThackeray sacrificed Hindutva for power was a lie perpetrated for power!Eknath Shinde is also running the risk of ending up on the wrong side of history. Shiv sainiksare comparing Shinde to Afzal Khan, the Adil Shahi commander who came to secure thesurrender of Shivaji but ended up dying at the hands of the Marathas. Playing the sympathycard, Uddhav Thackeray has accused Shinde of remaining silent when the BJP abusedtheThackeray family.You betrayed your own party" is the Uddhav Thackeray Shiv Sena’s epitaph forMaharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. It says the Shiv Sena cannot be finished off justbecause a - Kapilkumar M. Hirpara bunch of MLAs rebelled and left.
