Uddhav Thackeray Offers to Resign Amid Shiv Sena (UBT) Rebellion and Defections
Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray offered to resign if party workers lose faith in his leadership amid a fresh rebellion, including six MPs reportedly ready to join the rival Eknath Shinde faction. Speaking at the party's 60th foundation day in Mumbai, Thackeray defended his connection with the base, criticized the BJP for attempting to weaken Shiv Sena, and apologized to voters for defections. He affirmed his commitment to the party's ideology and vowed to continue fighting if supported.
