Uddhav's dig at CM: People scared as rains say 'me punha yein'

Amidst power tussle between his party and the BJP in Maharashtra, Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday poked fun at Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis' impassioned pre-poll "Me punha yein" (I will return) assertion which had evoked numerous social media memes.

Addressing a press conference in Aurangabad district, Thackeray likened the CM's punchline with a "withdrawing monsoon."
Responding to a query on the status of government formation, Thackeray said, "You will soon come to know if Sena will be in power. But right now, I want assistance for rain- hit farmers. Theretreating monsoon is threatening 'mi punha yein' (I will be back) as a result of which people are getting scared."
