Thackeray Brothers: United Front at Mill Workers' Protest?

Thackeray Brothers Unite: Mill workers rally in Mumbai for housing rights, supported by Shiv Sena and MNS.

A significant march by mill workers is set to take place tomorrow at 12 noon at Azad Maidan, Mumbai, demanding rightful housing and other long-pending issues. The protest has gained political traction with both the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) and the Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena extending their full support to the cause.

The protest aims to bring attention to the demands of mill workers, particularly their long-awaited demand for affordable housing in Mumbai. Thousands are expected to gather for the march, which has been organized by various mill worker unions.

Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray has confirmed his participation in the protest. MNS chief Raj Thackeray had earlier assured worker organizations that either he or senior party leader Bala Nandgaonkar would join the march, depending on the location. Since the march is being held in Mumbai, speculation is now rife: will both Thackeray brothers—Uddhav and Raj—be seen together at the same protest?

This question has sparked curiosity and political chatter, as it has been years since the two leaders have shared a public platform. Their presence together would not only signal rare political solidarity but could also send a strong message to both supporters and opposition.

With emotions running high among mill workers and public interest growing around the possible Thackeray reunion, all eyes will be on Azad Maidan tomorrow.
