Shiv Sena to introduce Yuva Sena on Oct 17

Mumbai, Oct 8: The three generations of Thackerays' would march together in the Dussehra rally in Mumbai on Oct 17 and on that same day Shiv Sena would launch its Yuva Sena led by 20-year-old Aditya Thackeray.

A senior Shiv Sena leader informed, "In a grand function Sena has decided to launch Yuva Sena, youth wing of the party which would be led by Aditya."

However, the move has surprised several party men, as Sena already has a youth wing, Bhartiya Vidhyarthi Sena (BVS).

Explaining the rationale behind the move, the party leader said BVS has members who all are 35-plus. Therefore, the party is planning to introduce young faces, he added.

Sena chief, Bal Thackeray's grand son, Aditya recently came in news when he opposed Rohinton Mistry"s 'Such A Long Journey" as it reportedly contained anti-Sena remarks.

As a result, the book which was prescribed for Mumbai University"s BA degree course, was scrapped from the syllabus by the members of the university.
