Mumbai: Mumbai is all set to witness the reunion of Raj Thackeray and his estranged cousin Uddhav Thackeray at a joint rally of the Shiv Sena (UBT) and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) in Mumbai’s Worli on Saturday (5 July). The Mumbai Traffic Police has issued a traffic advisory to ensure commuters do not face any inconvenience.
Mumbai traffic police said on X, "On Saturday, 05/07/2025, between 10:00 AM and 2:00 PM, a rally has been organized by Maharashtra Navnirman Sena at Worli Dome, S. V. P. Stadium, (N. S. C. I.) Lala Lajpat Rai Marg, Worli, Mumbai." They also suggested commuters to plan their journey accordingly.
Why Are Thackeray Cousins Reuniting?
The Thackeray cousins are reuniting after nearly two decades in a show of Marathi solidarity. The event, titled ‘Marathi Vijay Melava’ (Victory Rally), follows the Maharashtra government's rollback of controversial government resolutions mandating Hindi as a compulsory third language from Class 1 under the three-language policy.
