'Gadkari then, Fadnavis now': RSS-backed leaders being sidelined by BJP, claims Uddhav Thackeray

Uddhav Thackeray, leader of the Shiv Sena, has suggested that BJP is sidelining prominent leaders backed by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), citing Devendra Fadnavis and Nitin Gadkari as recent examples. He questioned whether the RSS would speak out against this trend, indicating growing tensions between the two major parties in Maharashtra. This situation underscores the complex dynamics within India's political landscape, especially as regional parties like Shiv Sena vie for influence against national parties like BJP.
