It may be recalled that soon after joining hands with Congress and NCP, the Uddhav Thackeray led Shiv Sena has been accused of shedding its nationalist stance.
It was reported that the party had refrained from openly supporting the Citizenship Amendment Act. A Congress MLA who had opposed the hanging of terrorist Yakub Memon was also inducted as a minister in the Uddhav les government.
