After MVA (Congress, Shiv Sena-UBT and NCP(SP) alliance) lost the Maharashtra Assembly elections, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said, "We are not disappointed. We are people who fight. We are Shiv Sainiks of Balasaheb Thackeray." He added, "Balasaheb Thackeray has also seen defeats and victories in his life. The people of Maharashtra are sad, they are not happy."
