‘You’ll See What Injured Tiger Can Do,’ Says Shiv Sena-UBT Chief Uddhav Thackeray; Warns Amit Shah Not To Underestimate Marathi Manus

Published

on

Mumbai: Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray launched a scathing attack on Union Home Minister Amit Shah warning him not to underestimate the “Marathi manus” and said he will soon get to see what an “injured tiger” can do.

This comes after Amit Shah said the last Maharashtra assembly elections — in which Shiv Sena (UBT) was wiped out — will show Uddhav Thackeray his place.

Uddhav Thackeray Replies To Amit Shah

Addressing a public meeting, on the occasion of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray’s birth anniversary on Thursday, Thackeray said, “Amit Shah said that these elections will show Uddhav Thackeray his place. Okay, Amit Shah ji! You will see what an injured tiger and his claws can do. Don’t mess with ‘Marathi Manush’. We forced Aurangzeb to kneel down, who is Amit Shah?”

The former Maharashtra Chief Minister also challenged the BJP-led Centre of holding elections on ballot papers. He attacked the BJP over ‘Hindutva’ and said those spreading communal disharmony can’t be Hindu.

Uddhav Thackeray Demands That EVM Be Kept Aside

“If you have any shame, keep EVM aside and hold elections on the ballot paper. Anyone who spreads Hindu-Muslim enmity, can’t be a Hindu…Our Hindutva is clean,” Thackeray said.

The Shiv Sena (UBT) suffered a crushing defeat in the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly elections, securing only 20 seats, while the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance registered a resounding victory with 235 seats.

Following the results, several Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) leaders raised concerns over the ‘legitimacy’ of EVMs.

Earlier this month, Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar dismissed calls for a return to paper ballots, calling the suggestion “unwarranted and regressive” and asserting that it is aimed to “derail” the election process.

In the 2024 Maharashtra Assembly election, the BJP-led Mahayuti alliance emerged victorious with 235 seats, while Shiv Sena and Nationalist Congress Party also made notable gains, with 57 and 41 seats, respectively.

The Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, on the other hand, suffered a major setback, with the Congress winning just 16 seats, the Shiv Sena (Uttar Pradesh) 20 and the Sharad Pawar-led NCP securing just 10 seats.

Published

on

Mumbai Maharashtra Samajwadi Party leader and MLA Abu Asim Azmi has demanded from Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to stop the demolition of religious places, houses and projects in the name of road and footpath expansion in Bhiwandi and protect religious places, temples, mosques and houses. Earlier, the government and MMRDA had spent an additional Rs 1700 crore on projects to protect the victims of the metro project. Abu Asim Azmi demanded from Devendra Fadnavis and Eknath Shinde that in the new development project of Bhiwandi Nizampur Municipal Corporation, a proposal has been made to widen the road by 6-6 meters from Rajiv Gandhi Chowk to Tim Ghar Marg, which is expected to make thousands of people homeless and unemployed, and temples and mosques will also be affected by this project, so this project should be canceled immediately. Azmi alleged that this project is causing a lot of hardship to the people and also endangering the existence of many religious places, so this project and plan should be stopped and a new plan should be prepared. Azmi said that this project and the expansion of roads and footpaths will only benefit the builder lobby, so the government should consider it so that the citizens of Bhiwandi get justice.
