Those who congratulated Shinde and Fadnavis included Shiv Sena chief and former Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray. Notably, a rebellion led by Shinde toppled Thackeray’s MVA coalition government. The Maha Vikas Aghadi comprising Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress was formed in 2019 after a fallout between Shiv Sena and BJP.
