Shiv Sena-UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray made a striking political allegation at a public rally in Hingoli, Maharashtra, pointing to a calculated conspiracy behind the split of his party. He declared openly that the real operation in play was not any 'Operation Tiger' but 'Operation Devendra.'
Amit Shah Named as the Architect
Thackeray placed the blame squarely on Union Home Minister Amit Shah, accusing him of deliberately steering Shiv Sena's MPs and MLAs into Eknath Shinde's faction. He argued that the entire scheme was driven by a single objective: to make certain that no leader from Maharashtra would ever ascend to the country's highest office.
Fadnavis Tipped as a Future PM Candidate
At the rally, Thackeray stated that it was only a matter of time before Devendra Fadnavis would be projected as a prime ministerial candidate. He argued that Amit Shah manoeuvred his lawmakers across to Shinde's side precisely so that no person from Maharashtra could reach that position on the strength of their own merit and hard work.
Not a Guess, a Firm Conviction
Thackeray was emphatic that his allegations were not rooted in speculation or conjecture. He stated with conviction that this was not a guess but his absolute and firm belief.
