Shiv Sena UBT will not attend INDIA bloc's June 8 meeting: Sources

A day after DMK, now the Shiv Sena UBT is unlikely to attend the upcoming INDIA bloc meeting scheduled for June eight in Delhi, according to sources. While virtual attendance remains under consideration, a final decision is yet to be made. This potential absence comes amid widening rifts within the opposition alliance. In Maharashtra, tensions have emerged within the Maha Vikas Aghadi coalition, comprising the Sharad Pawar-led NCP (SP), Shiv Sena UBT, and Congress, driven by the ongoing legislative council elections. Additionally, strains have developed between the Congress and DMK. While some regional allies plan to attend, the physical absence of key partners highlights emerging challenges.
