Metropolitan Region. For this he is ready to work on the policy of give and take. Sources said that Uddhav
Thackeray has been consulting party workers and leaders for the last few days. In this sequence, on tuesday he

our party and we are keen to contest elections from this seat. We are ready to leave mumbai North Central and
