The long-discussed alliance between the Shiv Sena (UBT) and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) for the upcoming Mumbai civic elections is likely to be announced shortly. According to Sena leader Sanjay Raut, the official confirmation might occur on Wednesday.

In a social media post, Raut shared an image of Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and his cousin, MNS president Raj Thackeray, suggesting an impending declaration with the cryptic message, 'tomorrow at 12 pm.'
