BJP leader hints at axe on MVA’s Sunday rally in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar

Against the backdrop of the disturbances witnessed in different parts of Maharashtra during the Ram Navami celebrations, a senior Bharatiya Janata Party state Minister on Friday hinted that the axe may fall on the proposed Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi rally on Sunday in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
Medical Education Minister Girish Mahajan said that if the MVA rally could create further law-and-order problems, then the ruling Shiv Sena-BJP government may not allow the gathering.
The Congress-Nationalist Congress Party-Shiv Sena (UBT) has scheduled a combined rally in the historic town famed for Ajanta-Ellora cave temples on April 2 – barely four days after violent group clashes rocked Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Jalgaon and a Mumbai suburb in the past 36 hours.
Mahajan told mediapersons that the Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis are monitoring the situation closely in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
“However, if the police report that holding the rally at this time could be inappropriate given the current situation, a suitable decision may be taken,” the Minister said, hinting at possible denial of permission for the MVA event.
Earlier today, Sena (UBT) MP and Chief Spokesperson Sanjay Raut pointed fingers at the ruling alliance for what he labelled as ‘state-sponsored’ riots which were designed to derail the MVA mega show of strength in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar.
“Our information is that nobody from the two groups wanted any violence… But it was the government which wanted the unrest. It supported those who resorted to the violence by not acting against them. The city has witnessed ‘state-sponsored’ violence to prevent us from our rally on Sunday,” claimed Raut.
However, state BJP President Chandrashekhar Bawankule rubbished Raut’s contentions and warned saying that if the situation again deteriorates, then the Sena (UBT) MP should be held responsible for making inflammatory statements.
Top leaders of the major political parties have appealed to all to exercise restraint and refrain from making any provocative statements that could aggravate the delicate situation.
Meanwhile, tight police security arrangements along with other forces like SRPF, CRPF and RAF have been deployed in the three cities to prevent any untoward incidents.

Maharashtra Marathi Hindi Controversy: Strict action will be taken against those who take law into their hands: Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis

Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has made it clear on the Hindi-Marathi language dispute that linguistic discrimination and violence cannot be tolerated. If anyone instigates violence in the name of Marathi language or takes the law into his own hands, strict action will be taken against him because it is the government’s responsibility to maintain law and order. He said that in the Mira Road Hindi Marathi violence case, the police have registered a case and taken action.
A committee has been formed in the matter of Marathi and Hindi language. Whatever is better for the students on its recommendation, the government will implement it. No decision has been taken under anyone’s pressure. He said that the recommendation for Hindi language was made during the Maha Vikas Aghadi rule itself, but now these same people are opposing it. The public knows everything.
He said that in this election, BJP has got 51 percent Marathi votes. Violence and discrimination in the name of language cannot be tolerated. Marathi is a source of pride for us, but we do not oppose Hindi. What will happen if a Marathi businessman in another state is asked to speak his language? In Assam, he was asked to speak Assamese. He said that strict action will be taken against those who break the law.

Opposition protests against the government for declaring Wari as urban Naxal

Mumbai: On the fourth day in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, the opposition created a ruckus over declaring Wari as urban Naxal and has made serious allegations against the government of insulting Wari. On the fourth day of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, the opposition has made several serious allegations against the ministers of the government while protesting on the steps of the Vidhan Bhavan. The ministers included in the cabinet of the state government are misusing their powers and occupying government lands in the state.
Just as the ruling front is trying to defame the holy pilgrimage of Hinduism, Wari, by calling Vitthurai and Warkars urban Naxalites and urban Maoists, in the same way it is insulting Wari Palkhi. This is reprehensible. Members of the Maha Vikas Aghadi staged a strong protest on the steps of the Vidhan Bhavan against the ruling front and accused the government of insulting Wari. In this demonstration, the members also raised slogans cursing the government and said that due to the scamster government, farmers are dying of hunger and the ministers are calling the laborers urban Naxalites. Shiv Sena leader of opposition Ambadas Danve, Vijay Varditwar, Sachin Ahir, Jitendra Ahawat etc. participated in this protest.
