Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray, accompanied by his mother and family members, visited Matoshree – the residence of Shiv Sena (UBT) president Uddhav Thackeray – on Saturday afternoon, describing it as a “family lunch”.
“It’s a family meeting. My mother is with me,” Raj Thackeray told reporters while entering Matoshree.
The increasing closeness between the cousins has been evident since July. On July 5, they appeared together at a rally opposing “Hindi imposition,” sharing a platform after nearly two decades.
Saturday’s visit marks the sixth meeting between the two cousins in recent months, underlining their increasing proximity at both personal and political levels ahead of the crucial Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections expected later this year.
