Imagine a young prince, groomed in the riches of the family and territorial gains, gets the power and seat in the near future due to the family’s influence. Raj’s story was somewhat different. Let’s have a sneak peek into his Maharshtra politics as well.
Introduction:
Born in a spicy Marathi household – Thackrey in Maharashtra – the lamp of Raj got the preliminary presence of Sun, like uncle Mr Bal Thackrey. Igniting the same flame as the former and reaping great heights is always a crucial task. It is not for those who remain satiated in their daily routine but have an utter zeal within them. Raj is such a character.
His initial years were in the artistic world – as a cartoonist. Caricature making is what appeals the most even today. Political training of this radical leader initiated under the guidance of his uncle. Contributing as much as he could to the Marathi-orientated party.
The new voyage:
With new energy in his veins and an amalgam of new spirits and thoughts, he paved his new way out in the world of politics. A trivial decision to not be a part of that old party is no easy job, especially when the former architect is there in his workings. The spirit to walk alone despite all odds is truly inspiring!
This led to the birth of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) – paving his new journey for political success. Main points for elections remained the struggle for Marathi manus, homeland and culture.
A charismatic leader, famous in the Maratha crowd especially for his opening lines, is by nature pro-Hindutva.
