Mumbai, 12/8: Once criticised for favouring the company of Bollywood stars and celebrities instead of Shiv Sena leaders, Aaditya Thackeray has hit the road to connect with the party’s base since the fall of the Uddhav Thackeray government in Maharashtra. The Thackeray scion has been touring various parts of the state, especially the constituencies of rebel Sena MLAs, as the party faction led by his father Uddhav Thackeray faces an existential crisis.
Over the last one-and-half months, the tone and tenor of the usually calm 32-year-old Aaditya, who represents the Worli Assembly constituency in Mumbai, has taken on aggression. He has also been reaching out to party workers through ‘Nishtha Yatra’ and ‘Shiv Samvad’ campaigns.
