Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) president Raj Thackeray on Friday claimed that the BJP has exhausted its ideological appeal and is now relying solely on financial power and administrative pressure.

"The BJP has reached a point of 'political saturation' and is now surviving on borrowed time," said the two leaders in an interview in Shiv Sena (UBT)'s mouthpiece Saamana.
