Even though it was Uddhav's son who proposed the plastic ban, Sena workers and supporters thronged their party chief's house bearing birthday presents covered in the banned material

Uddhav Thackeray accepts a basket of dry fruits wrapped in plastic
The plastic ban seems to be in action everywhere but Matoshree, the residence of Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray. On the occasion of Thackeray's birthday on Friday, scores of Sena workers and supporters thronged Matoshree, unabashedly carrying plastic bags, bouquets and gifts wrapped in plastic. Ironically, this is the very party that was behind the anti-plastic campaign in Maharashtra.
Plastic's just fine here
It was Uddhav's son, Aaditya, who had proposed the plastic ban across the state, which has been in force since June 24. While the common man could be fined anywhere between Rs 5,000 to Rs 25,000 if they are found carrying the contraband material, with Sena as the ruling party in the BMC, plastic seems to be just fine at Matoshree.
