‘You’ll See What Injured Tiger Can Do,’ Says Shiv Sena-UBT Chief Uddhav Thackeray; Warns Amit Shah Not To Underestimate Marathi Manus

Mumbai: Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray launched a scathing attack on Union Home Minister Amit Shah warning him not to underestimate the “Marathi manus” and said he will soon get to see what an “injured tiger” can do.

This comes after Amit Shah said the last Maharashtra assembly elections — in which Shiv Sena (UBT) was wiped out — will show Uddhav Thackeray his place.

Uddhav Thackeray Replies To Amit Shah

Addressing a public meeting, on the occasion of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray’s birth anniversary on Thursday, Thackeray said, “Amit Shah said that these elections will show Uddhav Thackeray his place. Okay, Amit Shah ji! You will see what an injured tiger and his claws can do. Don’t mess with ‘Marathi Manush’. We forced Aurangzeb to kneel down, who is Amit Shah?”

The former Maharashtra Chief Minister also challenged the BJP-led Centre of holding elections on ballot papers. He attacked the BJP over ‘Hindutva’ and said those spreading communal disharmony can’t be Hindu.

Uddhav Thackeray Demands That EVM Be Kept Aside

“If you have any shame, keep EVM aside and hold elections on the ballot paper. Anyone who spreads Hindu-Muslim enmity, can’t be a Hindu…Our Hindutva is clean,” Thackeray said.

The Shiv Sena (UBT) suffered a crushing defeat in the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections, securing only 20 seats, while the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance registered a resounding victory with 235 seats.

Following the results, several Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) leaders raised concerns over the ‘legitimacy’ of EVMs.

Earlier this month, Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar dismissed calls for a return to paper ballots, calling the suggestion “unwarranted and regressive” and asserting that it is aimed to “derail” the election process.

In the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly election, the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance emerged victorious with 235 seats, while Shiv Sena and Nationalist Congress Party also made notable gains, with 57 and 41 seats, respectively.

The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, on the other hand, suffered a major setback, with the Congress winning just 16 seats, the Shiv Sena (Uttar Pradesh) 20 and the Sharad Pawar-led NCP securing just 10 seats.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader Worker Assembly Abu Asim Azmi criticized the statement of Home Minister Amit Shah and said that it is the responsibility of the Home Minister and the Central Government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistani infiltrators. The population of Muslims in India has increased due to Bangladeshis. This is completely wrong. The residents of West Bengal and ordinary Muslims are being targeted under the guise of Bangladeshi and Pakistanis. He said that the government is yours in many states and at the center, so how do Bangladeshi infiltrators enter from the border? What action has the government taken against those who forge their documents so far? He said that targeting Muslims under the guise of Bangladeshi should be stopped, just as Karat Soumya is trying to fake the certificates and documents of every Muslim and is targeting Muslims. He said that the government should pay attention to how Bangladeshi infiltrators infiltrate from the Indian border. This is not the job of Congress, SP or other parties. It is the job of the government to take action against Bangladeshi and Pakistanis and to bring them to justice. But Muslims should not be harassed or disturbed. He said that action is being taken against those officers who are preparing documents for Bangladeshis.
