‘My Party Is Not Same As Your Degree’: Uddhav Thackeray Takes Dig At PM Modi Over Fake Shiv Sena Remark

Uddhav Thackeray, the leader of the Shiv Sena (UBT), has retaliated against Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent statement calling the party “fake”.

Responding to Prime Minister Modi’s statement, Thackeray stated that his party is not the same as “your degree”.

The leader of the Shiv Sena (UBT) claimed that Bal Thackeray formed his party to defend the rights of the people.

“The Shiv Sena, which was founded by Bal Thackeray to fight for the rights of sons of soil, is being called fake. They say that this is a fake Shiv Sena. It is not your degree to call it fake. Is this your degree which you are calling fake? After him (PM Modi), his other party member Amit Shah came and he also called it fake,” Uddhav Thackeray said at a campaign rally on Friday.

The PM on Monday while addressing a public rally in Maharashtra’s Chandrapur said, “INDIA alliance partner DMK is talking about finishing Sanatan and linking Sanatana Dharma to malaria and dengue. And the Congress and the fake Shiv Sena are calling the same people for rallies in Maharashtra.”

Meanwhile, Amit Shah on Thursday said, “Three parties have united in Maharashtra under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi. One fake Shiv Sena, one fake NCP, half Congress. We have a phrase in Gujarat, ‘Teen Tighda Kaam Bigada’. Uddhav Ji’s Shiv Sena is left half, Sharad Ji’s NCP is left half and both of them reduced Congress to half.”

Speaking at a campaign rally at Boisar near Mumbai on Friday, Uddhav Thackeray said the INDIA bloc will win over 300 seats in the Lok Sabha elections.

“I am saying this with pride and confidence, that the INDIA alliance will form the government and will win more than 300 seats,” he said.

The Uddhav Thackeray-led administration fell in June 2022 after Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde and forty other MLAs rebelled against the party’s leadership and defected to BJP.
