We have been waiting from the last two years for Maharashtra assembly elections in 2024." Aaditya Thackeray said.

"Youth in Maharashtra only want work in hands, they want jobs on the occasion of Dussehra we want to finish this Minde & khoke government with Mashal, I want to ask you all are you ready to fight with them I ready are you? Let's fight with this corrupted government, vote only for Shivsena UBT and you all know the symbol of Shivsena UBT it's mashal and only Mashal," Thackeray added.
