INDIA alliance poised to sweep 2024 LS polls, says Uddhav Thackeray

Mumbai, Sep 1 (IANS) Shiv Sena (UBT) President and ex-Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said that the National Opposition INDIA alliance is marching ahead confidently and all set to win the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections, here on Friday.

“We are moving ahead step-by-step and the third INDIA meeting was concluded successfully. We are all nation-lovers and we shall fight those who are opposed to the country, you all know who they are,” said Thackeray, who hosted the conclave attended by 28 political parties from all over India.

Without naming the Bharatiya Janata Party, he reiterated that the INDIA bloc will unitedly fight against autocracy, the jumlas, the corruption, speak for the ‘India family’, combat atrocities in different parts of the country, and work for a ‘new India’.

“We had heard of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’, but thereafter, allies were forgotten and friends only benefitted. For years there was ‘loot’ (cooking fuel rates), during election time ‘chhoot’ (rollback of domestic gas cylinder prices). We will stop all this,” declared Thackeray.

Aditya Thackeray MLA and MP Sanjay Raut spoke on the political resolutions adopted and different panels formed which will become active shortly.

Aditya Thackeray read out the resolutions adopted at the conclave. They are: “We, the INDIA parties, hereby resolve to contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections together as far as possible. Seat-sharing arrangements in different states will be initiated immediately and concluded at the earliest in a collaborative spirit of give-and-take.”

“We, the INDIA parties, hereby resolve to organize public rallies at the earliest in different parts of the country on issues of public concern and importance.”

And, “We, the INDIA parties, hereby resolve to coordinate our respective communications and media strategies and campaigns with the theme ‘Judega Bharat, Jitega India’ in different languages.”
