Maharashtra MLA Ravi Rana predicted Uddhav Thackeray will rejoin the BJP-led alliance by June 20, two weeks after Narendra Modi's anticipated re-election as Prime Minister. Rana claims Thackeray recognizes Modi's influence and will align with him. This prediction follows a rocky history between Thackeray's Shiv Sena and the BJP since their 2019 split. Sanjay Raut, a key Thackeray aide, dismissed Rana's claim, emphasizing Thackeray's independent leadership. Union Minister Ramdas Athawale cautiously supported the possibility. Meanwhile, Rana also expressed confidence in his wife, Navneet Rana, retaining her Amravati Lok Sabha seat.
