Big Blow to MNS! After Sandeep Dhuri, Another Key Leader Bids Farewell to Raj Thackeray

MNS has received another major blow in Jogeshwari. The party's division head and Jai Jawan Govinda team's trainer, Sandeep Dhawale, joined the Shinde group in the presence of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. This party entry was facilitated by MP Ravindra Waikar. Along with Dhawale, Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi's Mumbai president Parameshwar Ranshur and entrepreneur Ishwar Ranshur also joined Shiv Sena with their supporters.

Amidst the backdrop of the municipal elections, while all parties are actively campaigning, there seems to be an increase in the defection of workers from MNS. Sandeep Dhawale was considered a staunch supporter of Raj Thackeray. He had built a strong team of youth. His departure may weaken MNS's strength in the Jogeshwari area.

Notably, a few days ago, Dhawale met Raj Thackeray and withdrew his wife's independent candidacy, declaring a stance of party loyalty. However, within just six days, his change of party has sparked discussions in political circles.
