Amit Thackeray

The Bharatiya Janata Party has allegedly offered MNS head Raj Thackeray's son Amit Thackeray a position in the Maharashtra Cabinet. Amit Thackeray is not a member of the MLC or MLA. The reported move comes only weeks after Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde launched a coup that brought Uddhav Thackeray's cabinet down. The BJP seeks to put Amit Thackeray alongside Aaditya to attract the state's youth.
