Raj meets ailing Bal Thackeray

Raj meets ailing Bal Thackeray
Mumbai: Maharashtra Navnirman Sena president Raj Thackeray today met his uncle and Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray, who has been ailing for some time.

The MNS president, accompanied by wife Sharmila, visited his uncle's residence Matoshree in suburban Bandra today. This was Raj's fourth meeting with his uncle in four months.

The meeting comes after the MNS chief's visit to Matoshree in July after cousin Uddhav's angioplasty.

Raj had met his uncle then and also twice last month.

At the Sena Dussehra rally here last week, ailing Bal Thackeray had virtually announced his retirement from public life and urged his followers to stand by son Uddhav and grandson Aditya.

"I have collapsed physically... I can't walk... I am tired," Mr Thackeray had said in a video-recorded address.
