India, July 5 -- Shiv Sena leader Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray reunited on Saturday as the two regional parties come together amid the three-language row.

The reunion, which comes after 20 years, was announced in order to celebrate the Maharashtra government's roll back of the three-language policy in primary schools.

The Thackeray brothers' reunion also comes ahead of the local body polls in the state.

Both parties - Shiv Sena UBT and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena - are known for their push towards Maratha identity and language. The reunion of the parties comes amid the three-language row with the Central government.
