Mumbai: Maharashtra environment minister Aaditya Thackeray on Monday threw another dare at rebel Shiv Sena leaders to come face to face and tell him what’s wrong with the government.
The government and the party, led by Aaditya Thackeray’s father and Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, are facing a rebellion by senior leader Eknath Shinde’s faction and nearly 40 of the 55 Sena MLAs.
Aaditya Thackeray referred to the Shinde camp as “traitors”, not rebels”, and said, “Those who betray… they never win. We are confident of and are getting a lot of love.” His comments came as the political slugfest reached the Supreme Court, which will next hear the matter on July 11.
When asked specifically about minister Uday Samant joining the Shinde camp in a hotel in Guwahati, Assam, Mr. Thackeray said, “It is his decision, but he will come before us someday. He will have to look us in the eye someday.”
