Smita Thackeray to join Congress Party
The Congress has decided to embrace the high-profile daughter-in-law of Shiv Sena chief Smita Thackeray, to strongly convey the message that party president 'Soniaji' Gandhi has greater acceptance than Balasaheb.
Even after her divorce with Jaidev in 2004, Smita, 48, had continued to live in the Thackeray family home, Matoshree, underlining what many said was her special bond with her father-in-law.
But Smita has already spoken against the philosophy of the Sena and praised Sonia Gandhi, two unwritten conditions for joining the Congress.
IMO: I was left with the impression that Smita Thackeray's work was of artistic merit. This may not be an obvious situtation, certainly Rane and others do not seem happy with the situation, doubtless time will tell as to how important it is.
