Hindi row: Why Uddhav Sena has distanced itself from Stalin's hardline stance - BMC in focus?

IndiaTimes Monday, 7 July 2025 ()
Following a rare show of unity against "Hindi imposition," Tamil Nadu CM MK Stalin sought support from Uddhav Thackeray. However, Shiv Sena (UBT) distanced itself from DMK's radical stance, clarifying their opposition is against forced imposition, not the language itself. With BMC elections approaching, BJP aims to consolidate North Indian voters in Mumbai.
