While showering praises on alliance partners, Sena leadership repeatedly claimed they have been backstabbed by 'their own'.
The BJP is set to form the next government in the state with the support of Sena rebels led by Eknath Shinde and several independents who had earlier backed the government of the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress alliance.
Shiv Sena Minority Front were in support of Uddhav Thackeray and against Sena MLA Gulabrao Patil in Jalgaon. Patil was one of the rebel ministers who joined the Shinde camp.
Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Thursday tweeted a photo of a man stabbed from the back and said, "This is exactly what happened". Outgoing CM Uddhav Thackeray also reiterated in his interaction, that he has been backstabbed - as the rebels came from his own party, not from the alliance partners.
"Shiv Sena is not born for power, power is born for Shiv Sena. This has always been Balasaheb Thackeray's mantra. We will work and come to power on our own once again," said Raut.
Uddhav Thackeray resigned last evening, a day before a scheduled floor test in the state Assembly. Recalling the same, Raut said, "We got emotional yesterday when he resigned as CM. Everyone has faith in Uddhav Thackeray; people of every caste and religion support him. Sonia Gandhi and Sharad Pawar trust him."
