Several Members of Parliament (MPs) from the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) party, commonly known as Sena UBT, took late-night flights to Delhi, sparking speculation of a potential political realignment. The sudden travel occurred amidst growing anxieties within the party regarding a possible merger with the Indian National Congress. Sources indicate the MPs were summoned to the capital by party leadership. This move follows recent discussions between the Congress and Sena UBT regarding a potential alliance for upcoming elections. The purpose of the Delhi meeting remains officially undisclosed, but it is widely believed to address concerns about party members potentially defecting to the Congress. The situation has created internal unrest within Sena UBT, with some members expressing apprehension about losing the party’s distinct identity. The unfolding events raise questions about the future of the Shiv Sena UBT and its political strategy.
