Mumbai: MNS Chief Raj Thackeray in an address to the press after the Maharashtra Assembly poll results started pouring in thanked the voters for their support and announced that his party will sit in the opposition.
The chief of the MNS, the party which bagged 13 seats in the Maharashtra polls, also remarked that the apparent victory of the Congress was more due to opposition failure than Congress-NCP combine victory.
Lauding his workers who worked hard for the party during the Assembly election, Raj Thackeray said that the MNS had succeeded in created a dent in the votebank of both the BJP-Sena and the Cong-NCP alliance.
He also asserted that one more cause of the defeat of the opposition was that they had failed to raise the right issues in the polls.
Also advising the Sena to introspect, he claimed that the political map of Maharashtra will change in the next few years.
Thanking media for its support, the erstwhile Sena leader instructed the candidates who failed to win to work more for the constituency and those who attained victory must put forward party ideology in the assembly.
