During his visit to Delhi, Uddhav Thackeray will meet with leaders of INDIA bloc including Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and leaders from Aam Aadmi Party and Trinamool Congress.
Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) chief Uddhav Thackeray will be on a three-day visit to Delhi from Tuesday where he is scheduled to hold a series of meetings with top leaders of the INDIA bloc. This will be Thackeray's first visit to the national capital after the Lok Sabha elections and ahead of the assembly polls in Maharashtra.
Speaking about Thackeray's schedule, party leader Sanjay Raut said that Aaditya Thackeray and Rashmi Thackeray will also accompany the former Maharashtra Chief Minister on his visit to New Delhi.
Thackeray will hold a meeting with Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson Sonia Gandhi, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi.
He will also meet with the leaders from Aam Aadmi Party and Trinamool Congress, Raut said.
During his visit, the Shiv Sena leader will also meet with Sharad Pawar and Maharashtra Congress in charge, Ramesh Chennithala. He will also hold a meeting with the MPs from Maharashtra.
Earlier, Chennithala had said that talks over seat sharing between the Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance will take place on August 20, on the occasion of former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi's birth anniversary when Kharge and Rahul will be in Mumbai.
On a meeting between Sharad Pawar and Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Raut said he could not comment on the meeting, reported news agency ANI.
Both the leaders had met on August 3 at CM Shinde's Varsha bungalow and discussed the issues of the Maratha reservation, among others.
The elections to the 288-member Maharashtra Legislative Assembly are due later this year. This will be the first election to be held in the state after Shiv Sena and the Nationalist Congress Party suffered a vertical split following the internal rebellion. Eknath Shinde, who broke away from a faction of the Shiv Sena in 2022 became the Chief Minister and a year later, Ajit Pawar was made the Deputy Chief Minister after he snapped ties with NCP.
