On Saturday (November 8), an unidentified drone was seen flying outside ‘Matoshree’, the residence of the Thackeray family in Bandra area of ​​Mumbai. As soon as this video went viral on social media, there was a stir in the area. The presence of drones in this area, considered a high security zone, has worried both the security agencies and the Thackeray faction.

According to eyewitnesses, this drone was seen flying for some time on the road between Matoshree and MMRDA office. As soon as the personnel deployed for the security of Matoshree saw the drone, they immediately recorded its video and informed the concerned security officials.

There was a stir due to drone flying in Matoshree campus

According to the information, after this incident, the Thackeray faction alleged that people coming to meet Uddhav Thackeray were being spied on through this drone. Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) leader Ambadas Danve said that Matoshree complex comes in high security zone. Despite this, flying such drones is a very serious matter from security point of view. Is someone spying on Matoshree? Need to know this.

What statement did the police give on the incident?

At the same time, Mumbai Police issued a statement clarifying the situation on this matter. Police said that drone survey permitted by MMRDA is going on in BKC and Kherwadi area. Please avoid spreading any kind of wrong information. Police also said that this drone was probably part of the same survey and is not a case of any personal surveillance.

However, the Thackeray faction does not seem satisfied with this explanation. He says that whether drone survey is allowed or not, the flight of such equipment over or around Matoshree should be completely banned.

Matoshree campus falls in red zone

It is noteworthy that according to the drone policy, many areas of Mumbai, especially VIP and government residential areas, fall in the Red Zone, where flying drones without special permission is completely prohibited.

After this incident, security arrangements have been tightened around Matoshree. The local police have also started examining the CCTV footage installed in the surrounding areas to find out from where the drone was flown and for what purpose. The investigation into the matter is ongoing. Security agencies are not ruling out any possible threat or possibility of espionage.

BMC election rests on elections

This meeting has taken place at a time when the 2026 Mumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) elections are near. BMC is considered to be the mini assembly of Maharashtra politics. Apparently, the Thackeray family can change political equations. Opponents also keep an eye on this meeting.

Came together in July

Significantly, in July this year, Uddhav and Raj Thackeray were seen sharing the stage together after about 20 years. In that rally held in Worli, both of them opposed the decision of the state government to make Hindi mandatory in schools. Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had to withdraw this decision due to public pressure and protest.

Raj Thackeray said in the rally that the importance of Maharashtra is more than any kind of politics. After about 20 years, he and Uddhav Thackeray have come together. He also said that Devendra Fadnavis did the work that Balasaheb Thackeray could never do.

This meeting during Ganeshotsav indicates to re -connect family relationships. But how deep its effect in politics will be, it will be clear in the coming time. At present, it is certain that this closeness of the Thackeray family has created a stir in the politics of Maharashtra.
