Eulogy to Uddhav Thackeray from someone who dissents Shiv Sena.

On 29th June, 2022 Maharashtra Chief Minister "Uddhav Thackeray" officially resigned. There were sects which have a great blast of happiness. Whereas many were also dejected after the news of resignation came out.

Uddhav Thackeray has the genesis of the far-right party shiv sena, the party known for operating on majoritarian impulse and Hindutva sentiments. Shiv Sena has always been on top of the radar of 'left intellectual criticism' for its vociferous anti-minority manoeuvres.

But when Uddhav submitted his resignation he has the emotional backing of the same intellectual wing. He is known for his excellent handling of the covid crisis.

He made sure there is transparency in showing genuine covid numbers notwithstanding that move may be politically incorrect in the present scenario. Meanwhile, almost every state was drastically hiding the real numbers it was Uddhav's decision to go with the real data.

He thwarted every attempt of communal disharmony in the state and never made a speech on the lines of his political party..

He survived personal ranting on his government by "BJP backed media" and did not allow their skyrocketing TRP to influence his governance.

Noted Advocate and Left-Wing Intellectual Karuna Nundy had an interesting tweet: -

Excellent work by @OfficeofUT and his team, including @AUThackeray and in the RS @priyankac19 I never thought I'd be saying this about a Shiv Sena government, but there it is. I hope you come back in the same spirit. #UddhavThackeray

Thank you for your leadership, Shri Uddhav Thackeray. You took up the difficult task of leading a new alliance, helped the state navigate through pandemic, ensured the fire of communal hate didn’t singe our state, kept the interest of state&its people above all without prejudice.

A rebel Shiv Sena MLA from the Eknath Shinde camp Wednesday said the resignation of Uddhav Thackeray from the Maharashtra Chief Minister's post "is not a matter of joy for us". The rift, he indicated, was a fallout of the party's alliance with Sharad Pawar's Nationalist Congress Party and the Congress. 

With Mr Thackeray's resignation, the floor test is now void. The BJPs Devendra Fadnavis is likely to stake claim to form a government, with Mr Shinde as his deputy, sources have said.
