Uddhav Thackeray loyalists miffed about 'special treatment' to outsiders

Disgruntled Shiv Sena (UBT) workers are voicing their frustration over what they perceive as preferential treatment being given to newer members of the party. Loyalists have specifically pointed to the rapid ascent of Ahir, who joined the undivided Shiv Sena just seven years ago, to several plum posts.

This internal dissent suggests underlying tensions within the party regarding the recognition of long-standing members versus those who have joined more recently. The workers feel their years of dedication are being overlooked in favor of newer entrants, leading to a sense of grievance.

The situation underscores a common challenge in political parties: balancing the integration of new talent with the acknowledgment of established loyalists. The Shiv Sena (UBT) appears to be navigating this delicate balance, with some party members feeling marginalized by recent appointments.
