Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray

This comes just a day after Shiv Sena s senior leader Sanjay Raut had tried to push for an expansion of the UPA while asserting that Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) supremo Sharad Pawar also enjoyed support across parties like UPA s chairperson Sonia Gandhi.
