Pune: Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray is concentrating on revitalizing the party's organization. During a party meeting in Pune on Friday, Thackeray stressed the importance of engaging with Generation Z (born roughly 1997 to 2012) and regaining the support of younger voters. Currently touring various districts as part of his organizational efforts, Thackeray visited Pune on Thursday.
He engaged with MNS assembly constituency division heads and provided instructions to party office-bearers on expanding their outreach efforts.
Addressing questions about Pune's widespread traffic congestion and potholes, Thackeray advised, "Ask those whom you voted for." He emphasized that the party must involve Generation Z if it wishes to remain relevant in the evolving political landscape. Thackeray instructed his workers that MNS's future politics would begin by including Generation Z, urging them to understand the thoughts and perspectives of the youth.
He also emphasized that party office-bearers should maintain regular contact with young people to comprehend their views and expectations.
Thackeray's focus on Generation Z follows the MNS's effort to strengthen its "lost organization" in cities where the party once had significant support. While the party traditionally holds strong urban bases in Mumbai, Pune, and Nashik, recent elections have raised concerns about its ability to maintain political momentum. Thackeray's district tours aim to bolster the organization at the grassroots level and reconnect with voters.
He also highlighted the city's long-standing civic issues, particularly potholes and traffic congestion, urging citizens and journalists to question elected representatives over basic civic matters and demand accountability.
