    The Shiv Sena (UBT) released a list of 65 candidates. The party has renominated most of its MLAs who stayed with former Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray after the split in 2022

    The Shiv Sena (UBT), which is part of the opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi, announced its first list of candidates for the Maharashtra assembly elections on Wednesday. Former state minister and party chief Uddhav Thackeray’s son, Aaditya Thackeray will be contesting from his current constituency of Worli in Mumbai.

    The Shiv Sena faction released a list of 65 candidates. It has renominated most of its MLAs who stayed with party chief and former Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray after the split in 2022.

    Yuva Sena leader and Thackeray’s cousin Varun Sardesai will contest from Mumbai’s Bandra (East). In Thane’s Kopri-Panchpakhadi seat, where Chief Minister Eknath Shinde is in the fray, the party fielded Kedar Dighe. He is the nephew of late Sena leader Anand Dighe, who is considered to be Shinde’s political mentor.

    But, during the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) seat-sharing press conference later, party leader Sanjay Raut said there is a mistake in the candidates’ list, which will soon be rectified. He did not, however, explain the error.
