Mumbai: On the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, Mumbaikars today all over Worli area can see the poster of Aaditya Thackeray the candidate from the constituency is making its way into Maharashtra politics in the form of Shiv Sena’s newest face.
ShivSena, till now backed for the rights of the Marathi people and stood for sons of the soil, was seen wishing residents in multiple languages, a day after Uddhav Thackeray’s son Aaditya was projected as their chief ministerial face.
From ‘Kem Cho Worli’ in Gujarati to ‘Namaste Worli‘ in Marathi and Kannada, Telgu, junior Thackeray’s picture waving at Mumbai was put up in the city.
Aaditya is described to be a “pale imitation” of his grandfather Balasaheb Thackeray, especially considering his social circle, which is made up of largely non-Marathi speakers. The posters could be seen as Sena’s attempt to transform the ideology of the party with Aaditya at the helm of it.
After two days of declaring his name as candidature the 29-year-old elder son of Thackeray vowed to change lives of crores while announcing his political debut from Worli.
Aaditya Thackeray said “I love politics since childhood as I used to tour with my grandfather and father. Whenever my friends and others questioned me asking what else I can do, I told them I can’t do anything else but politics. To do something new, politics is the only medium that can change the lives of crores of people,”.
According to the source, the Yuva Sena chief is a voracious reader, has the ability to hold his own in debates about the metropolis and the state, and has a connect with the grassroots ShivSena leader.
He is the “only leader in the country below the age of 30” who has already toured the entire state through his ‘Jan Ashirwad’ yatra and addressed over 75 ‘Aaditya sansads‘ claimed Yuva Sena secretary Varun Sardesai
Remaining youth leaders in the country are over 40 years of age, Sardesai, who is Aaditya Thackeray’s cousin, pointed out. “All the data that he has collected during these extensive tours are being used to prepare Sena’s manifesto. With Aaditya in the fray, the Sena’s ‘achche din‘ is all set to come,” said Sardesai.
