Shiv Sena (UBT) Spokesperson Anand Dubey Resigns Citing Ideological Differences
Anand Dubey, Shiv Sena (UBT)'s national spokesperson and a key Hindi-speaking leader, resigned citing ideological discomfort and months of distress. He emphasized prioritizing national interest over party lines, recalling his visit to Pahalgam after a terror attack and expressing concerns about the party's stance on important issues. Dubey's departure raises questions about internal cohesion within the Shiv Sena (UBT) and the broader opposition alliance in Maharashtra, though the party has not publicly responded to his resignation.
