Nana Patole had stated that when he tried to contact Uddhav Thackeray to discuss seat allocation in the Legislative Council elections, he could not be contacted. After that, Shiv Sena also responded to it. Therefore, it was seen that there was a difference between Congress and Shiv Sena Thackeray group.
