Mumbai, 29th June 2022: After the Supreme Court refused to stay the tomorrow’s floor test in Maharashtra legislative assembly, Shiv Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray resigned as the Chief Minister. He addressed the people through Facebook Live.
He also announced his resignation from his membership of the Maharashtra legislative council.
“I am satisfied that we have officially renamed Aurangabad to Sambhaji Nagar and Osmanabad to Dharashiv – the cities named by Balasaheb Thackeray.
I want to express my gratitude to the people of NCP and Congress that they supported me. From Shiv Sena, Anil Parab, Subhash Desai and Aaditya Thackeray, these people were only present when the proposal was passed while NCP and Cong people also supported the proposal.
I had come (to power) in an unexpected manner and I am going out in a similar fashion. I am not going away forever, I will be here, and I will once again sit in Shiv Sena Bhawan. I will gather all my people. Shiv Sena is with and nobody can snatch it. I am resigning as the CM & as an MLC”, he added.
