On Monday, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray backed the Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) protest and compared its founder Abhijeet Dipke to Lord Vishnu. "Abhijeet Dipke is an Avatar of Bhagwan Vishnu," he said in an exclusive interview on the Mumbai Tak news channel.

UBT leader Sanjay Raut hosted the interview and asked Thackeray what he thought about the Modi government and the past 12 years of his government. "The BJP government has been controlling the nation for the past 12 years, and suddenly a Marathi youngster who was studying in the USA got triggered by the CJI's cockroach remarks, and what happened next is something that the nation had never seen," Raut said.

"I told you no, Dipke is nothing but Lord Vishnu's Avatar," Thackeray said further, demanding the resignation of PM Modi after Dharmendra Pradhan. He also said that Dharmendra Pradhan deserved this hatred as he never stood for 'Dharma' though his name was 'Dharmendra'.

Thackeray's remarks about Dipke being an avatar of Lord Vishnu cracked the internet who began mocking the leader for making unusual comparisons and dragging the Hindu God unnecessarily over the issue. "When you lose the state and then the BMC, even someone like Dipke starts looking like an avatar of Vishnu. Next level of political devotion unlocked. From “Thackeray” to “Theo-cracy” in one smooth fall," one of the users said.


"Uddhav Thackeray, He does not respect Abhijit Hindu and Hindu gods - deities. And he openly states this. Whom are you likening to whom? Not to society, but at least to God, keep that. You are completely lost. Shame on you and your remaining followers," another user said.


"Think before you speak. Our deities are not subjects for casual comparison or mockery. Please respect Hindu beliefs," another one user said.


This is a day after Shiv Sena (UBT) intensified its attack on the BJP-led NDA government, claiming that the resignation of former Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan was only the first political consequence of the nationwide agitation over the NEET paper leak, and asserting that the Centre had become a "laughing stock" during the month-long protests.
 

In its party publication Saamana, Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena (UBT) argued that the 35-day sit-in at Delhi's Jantar Mantar, along with protests nationwide, had significantly damaged the government's standing and shattered the notion that PM Modi is politically untouchable. The piece called the minister's resignation the movement's "first political casualty," suggesting that sustained public pressure, not voluntary choice, pushed the government to let him go, despite initial resistance.
