Mumbai, 18 June (HS): Shiv Sena MLC Chandrakant Raghuvanshi

alleged on Thursday that six Shiv Sena MPs (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) had

shown their faith in Eknath Shinde and joined the Sena group. According to

Raghuvanshi, Operation Tiger took place in Maharashtra. Six MPs joined the Shiv

Sena today after expressing their support for Eknath Shinde. It is a good thing

they joined us. I greet them. He went on to say that if a leader wants to work

for the people, they should join the Shiv Sena-BJP coalition. If we want to

perform a decent job, there should be some fieldwork involved. All

representatives expected this. And now, if we need to do some job in the

country, we must join the Shiv Sena and the BJP. Balasaheb Thackeray was near

and dear to him. And for this, he was confident that if we had to go, no party

would be honorable except Eknath Shinde's. He also affirmed his support in

Eknath Shinde's leadership of the Shiv Sena.

Maharashtra is seeing renewed political buzz surrounding

Operation Tiger, with sources indicating that six of the present nine Shiv Sena

(Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) MPs are in contact with the Shiv Sena led by

Eknath Shinde. Union Minister Prataprao Jadhav lashed out at Shiv Sena (UBT)

leader Sanjay Raut on Thursday, claiming that the Rajya Sabha MP's language is

destroying the Uddhav Thackeray-led party. Regarding suspicion concerning

'Operation Tiger' and the internal letter of Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs,

According to Jadhav, the question now lies with the Speaker

of the Lok Sabha. Whatever letter the MPs gave is an internal affair for

the Shiv Sena (UBT). The Lok Sabha Speaker will make a decision, Jadhav

stated. The Union Minister also remarked on the Shiv Sena's approaching

Foundation Day, stating that the true supporters of Balasaheb

Thackeray's philosophy will assemble to commemorate the occasion. Tomorrow

(June 19) is the Shiv Sena's founding day, and those who believe in Balasaheb

Thackeray's philosophy will attend, he said, referring to the Eknath

Shinde-led group.
