Addressing an event organised here on the 58th Foundation Day of the Shiv Sena, Uddhav Thackeray said the Narendra Modi government, which took office on June 9, will collapse and it will replaced by an INDIA bloc-led dispensation

On the BJP's performance in the just held Lok Sabha polls, the former CM maintained the national party was trying to hide its failure by spreading news that the Shiv Sena (UBT) will join the ruling NDA

"We will never go with those who tried to finish off the Shiv Sena," Uddhav Thackeray declared, responding to speculation that he will realign with the BJP

Uddhav Thackeray said no poll should be held for 11 seats of the Legislative Council, where MLAs will be voting, till the Supreme Court rules on disqualification pleas related to some members of the lower house

Polls for 11 seats of the Legislative Council are slated for July 12

Uddhav Thackeray accused the BJP of abandoning Hindutva and asked whether the national party's alliance with regional outfits TDP and the JDU was organic

The Shiv Sena (UBT) president dubbed BJP's Hindutva as "regressive" and described the one professed by his party as "progressive"

Meanwhile, Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena also marked party's foundation day on Wednesday

Where has your Hindutva gone, you have no right to seek votes in Balasaheb Thackeray's name:, CM Eknath Shinde asked Uddhav Thackeray

Shiv Sena (UBT) won some Lok Sabha seats because of Congress' vote bank, Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde said
