Shiv Sena is no longer allied with the NDA, but rather the I.N.D.I.A alliance.

Suggested Change: "Change NDA to INDIA". Andromead ( talk) 12:25, 5 June 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Andromead: Do you have a source for this? jlwoodwa ( talk) 04:31, 9 June 2024 (UTC) reply

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Lightoil ( talk) 17:02, 11 June 2024 (UTC) reply

The descriptions seem to be accurate to me, but most, if not all of the sources in this section predate Uddhav Thackeray's ideological shift and the subsequent party split. Wouldn't it be more appropriate to update this section to the stances of the current Eknath Shinde-led party if new sources can be found? Block345 ( talk) 14:35, 9 June 2024 (UTC) reply

Shivsena in recent years due to influence of BJP is definetly not far right. Right wing would be more accurate. Raj Thackeray's MNS is far right. Shivsena is Right Shivsena(Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) is centre right 2405:201:A000:9907:988A:E383:98FC:2DC4 ( talk) 12:25, 9 July 2024 (UTC) reply
