Thackeray Calls Election Result A ‘Tsunami’, Thanks MVA Supporters

In his first reaction to the final results, Thackeray acknowledged the unexpected outcome for the Congress-Nationalist Congress Party (SP)-Shiv Sena (UBT) alliance, but expressed gratitude to those who voted for the MVA candidates. He described the result as not just a wave, but a “tsunami,” and acknowledged that while some attribute it to EVMs, it is ultimately accepted by the masses.
