Uddhav Thackeray shuns father's Sena pramukh title

Written By Unknown on Senin, 03 Desember 2012 | 22.23

MUMBAI: The decks are being cleared for Uddhav Thackeray's election as Shiv Sena president. However, Uddhav will not be known as Shiv Sena pramukh, an exalted title which his father, the late Balasaheb Thackeray, held for 46 years.

In an interview with Saamna, the Sena mouthpiece, on Sunday, Uddhav made it clear that he would not be known as Sena pramukh in the post-Balasaheb era. "Balasaheb Thackeray is the one and only Shiv Sena pramukh. He will always remain Shiv Sena pramukh for Shiv Sainiks. I can't even think of this (inheriting the title). I am not competent for that high post," Uddhav said in a Q&A session with Sanjay Raut, Sena leader and executive editor of Saamna.

Uddhav has also assured Shiv Sainiks that there will be no break from the late Balasaheb's ideology. "I will follow the path shown to us by Balasaheb-for instance, the son of the soil and a pro-Marathi agenda, Hindutva and a firm policy against illegal Bangladeshi migrants who sneak into Mumbai." Uddhav said that under his leadership, the Sena will continue its fight against Islamic fundamentalism. Also, the Sena will press with its agitation for the inclusion of Marathi-speaking villages, including Belgaum and Karwar from the neighbouring Karnataka state, in Maharashtra.

"I want to fulfill Balasaheb's dream. He wanted the Sena-BJP-RPI alliance to unfurl the 'bhagwa' ( saffron) atop Mantralaya. I will leave no stone unturned to fulfill this dream. Lakhs of Shiv Sainiks are with me. Balasaheb's blessings and his thoughts are with us," he added.

Political observers say that by asserting that he won't be addressed as Shiv Sena pramukh, Uddhav has, in an astute move, reassured Shiv Sainiks who are extremely touchy about the late Sena supremo's title.

Meanwhile, the Sena will soon convene after Uddhav returns to Mumbai from his Maharashtra tour, with a party meeting ratifying a formal resolution unanimously electing him as Sena chief. "We will have to do this exercise as we are governed by the Election Commission rules," said a Sena functionary.

Talking about the controversy surrounding the proposed Balasaheb Thackeray memorial at Shivaji Park, Uddhav said that the issue was "between countless Shiv Sainiks and their undisputed leader, the late Balasaheb. They will take the final decision. I don't want to get into it".

He took a dig at those opposing the Thackeray memorial at Shivaji Park, saying, "There are some who only believe in whipping up controversies."
