जब मोदी सरकार संसद में दिल्ली के लोगों के ख़िलाफ़ बिल पेश करेगी तो शिवसेना भी दिल्ली के लोगों के साथ खड़ी होगी। आज मुंबई में उद्धव जी से मुलाक़ात के बाद इस विषय पर मीडिया से बात की। https://t.co/A2cl2MiRtE

Later jointly addressing a press conference, Uddhav said, "We all have come together to save the country and democracy. I think we should not be called 'opposition' parties in fact they (Centre) should be called 'opposition' since they are against Democracy and Constitution."
Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal said, "Uddhav Thackeray has promised us that they will support us in Parliament and if this bill (ordinance) does not pass in Parliament, in 2024, the Modi government will not be coming back to power."
Kejriwal said the Ordinance on control of services in Delhi means Modi government doesn't believe in Supreme Court.
Slamming the Centre, he alleged that the state governments are being toppled by using central agencies like CBI and ED.
