Gopinath Munde meets Bal Thackeray again!
After having made the Central Bharatiya Janata Party leadership agree to his demands, BJP leader Gopinath Munde met Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray again late on Thursday night and sought his “blessings”.
Munde has returned to Mumbai from Delhi after meeting the top BJP leaders including LK Advani and Rajnath Singh. After coming back Munde meets Thackray at his residence during which the Shiv Sena leader wished him all success.
Earlier Munde met Thackray three days back before going to Delhi. Thackray supported Munde on the issue of Munde’s resignation. Munde who was not satisfied with party functioning has resigned from all the party posts on Sunday and expressed his displeasure over the appointment of Madhu Chavan as the new president of Mumbai BJP unit. Later after meeting with senior leaders in Delhi he cancelled his resignation where he was assured that his conditions will be taken care.
Thackeray in an editorial in Sena paper Samna had expressed his support for Munde, but also advised him to “look back” before taking any step forward.
After the BJP leadership agreed to concede to Munde’s demands, Thackeray in another editorial on Thursday praised him for making the BJP top brass “buckle” and also for bringing in democracy in the party.
