Mumbai, Aug 16: Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray on Friday asked NCP(SP) President Sharad Pawar and Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan to announce the chief ministerial candidate ahead of the Maharashtra Assembly election and assured that he will extend his support.
Thackeray said this at the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) joint rally here, the first after his recent three-day visit to Delhi where he met Congress and other INDIA bloc leaders.
He said that all was well within the MVA as there was no dispute among them over the CM's post.
Thackeray, however, made a strong pitch for the Maha Vikas Aghadi partners and its rank and file to further strengthen unity and work in support of its nominees to defeat the MahaYuti government comprising BJP, Shiv Sena and NCP.
In a serious bid to put a show of unity during the Assembly election, Thackeray urged the MVA partners and cadres not to fight over seats, saying that together they would overthrow the MahaYuti government.
