Uddhav Bal Thackeray (born 27 July 1960) is an Indian politician who is the chief of Shiv Sena party. He is the son of Shiv Sena founder Bal Thackeray.
Earlier, Uddhav was looking after Hindu (a daily Marathi newspaper) while being actively involved in election campaigning activities. His party won the Brihan Mumbai Municipal Corporation election in 2002 and, thereafter, he was appointed as the party working president in January 2003.
Differences between Thackeray and former Shiv Sena leader Narayan Rane culminated in the expulsion of Rane from the Shiv Sena.[citation needed] Another split in the Sena came when Thackeray and his cousin Raj Thackeray had a falling-out, leading to Raj leaving the Shiv Sena in 2006 to form his own party, the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena.
Personal life
Uddhav is married to Rashmi Thackeray and has two sons, Aditya and Tejas
While elder son Aditya is the president of the Yuva Sena, younger son Tejas is believed to be studying in a college in Buffalo City of New York State. Tejas has maintained a very low profile unlike father and elder brother. On 16 July 2012 Uddhav Thackeray was admitted to Lilavati Hospital after he reported chest pain. He underwent an angioplasty and all the three blockages in his arteries were successfully removed.
He is keen in photography and has exhibited his collection of aerial shots of various forts of Maharashtra at the Jehangir Art Gallery in 2004. He has also published photo-books Maharashtra Desh (2010) and Pahava Vitthal (2011), capturing various aspects of Maharashtra and the warkaris during Pandharpur Wari respectively in the two books.
