This is 'Operation Devendra Fadnavis': Aaditya Thackeray on Sena split

In an exclusive interview with India Today, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray addressed the ongoing political crisis in his party and recent defections by their leaders in Maharashtra. Aaditya Thackeray dismissed claims of an existential threat to the party, attributing the departure of members to financial inducements and pressure from central investigative agencies. Aaditya Thackeray further said, "We are collateral damage in Operation Devendra Fadnavis. It is a plain fact that this is Operation Devendra Fadnavis. You mark my words, this may be the last session of Mr. Devendra Fadnavis as the chief minister of Maharashtra. And he will be pulled into the Union Cabinet and given a ministry which looks plum right now, but later on he'll realise that his wings are chopped."
