The Shiv Sena (UBT) has decided to contest four of the city’s six Lok Sabha constituencies. According to sources, the Uddhav Thackeray-led party will contest the Mumbai South, South Central, North West and North East seats. In 2014, the undivided Shiv Sena contested all but the last constituency. The North East constituency, which it is now eyeing, encompasses the eastern suburbs from Vidyavihar to Mulund. “Although the Shiv Sena never fought an election from the North East constituency, we have a suitable candidate,” said a party leader.
The leader added, “Our party chief will discuss the sharing of seats with the other members of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA). In 2014, we won three seats. We are sure these voters will continue to opt for us. As we have a strong candidate for Mumbai North East, we have decided to contest this seat. We will discuss our stand with our allies.”
