12 of Sena’s 19 MPs urge Uddhav to back NDA’s Murmu for Prez
Twelve out of the Shiv Sena’s 19 Lok Sabha MPs were present for a meeting called by party president Uddhav Thackeray on Monday to discuss Sena’s stand for the July 18 presidential poll and urged him to support BJP-led NDA candidate Droupadi Murmu, pushing a demand first articulated by Sena’s south-central Mumbai MP Rahul Shewale last week. Sena MP from north-west Mumbai Gajanan Kirtikar claimed all MPs except two who have joined chief minister Eknath Shinde’s camp —Bhavana Gawli and the CM’s son Shrikant Shinde— were present at the meeting held at Matoshree and are with Uddhav Thackeray. It is learned that the MPs hinted to ex-CM Thackeray that once Sena formally backs Murmu, some doors may reopen for a patch-up with the Shinde camp and BJP.
