There are no permanent winners or losers in politics, to tweak a famous cliché.

On the list of permanent losers seemed to be Raj Thackeray, with no role to play in state or even Mumbai politics. His Maharashtra Navnirman Sena, now 13 years of age, began with a bang seizing 13 seats in the state Assembly in 2009, and in subsequent years, went on to score handsomely in some of the municipal corporations in state.

In the next Assembly elections – in 2014 – its tally had come down to one, and that sole MLA too crossed over to the Shiv Sena. As far as the civic bodies were concerned, the MNS’s presence is negligible to nothing.
