No, It is very difficult for Raj Thackeray to take a U-turn at this point in time.
He has established his party and his son will be coming at the state level, so it is unlikely he wishes to join back with Bal Thackeray.

Yes, Raj admitted in his speech at Jambori Maidan that he will go 100 steps for his uncle Bal Thackeray. So I feel that both will come together on their similar agenda of – Marathi Manoos.

No, They will not come together. Raj Thackeray is searching for his own identity. What he said is just like any other politician in the election campaign. No politician follows what he says, this is true of Raj as well.

Yes, Both Bal Thackeray and Raj have more or less similar agendas. If need be, Raj will come back to his uncle’s fold. They have some grievances, which can be solved across the table.

No, Raj and Bal Thackeray will not come together. Two overambitious persons cannot stay together. Further, Raj’s followers will not let him join Bal Thackeray and jeopardise their own futures.
