The Shiv Sena on Tuesday claimed that Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis shied away from speaking in Marathi at public events. Mumbai: Taking a dim view of the goof-up in translating the Maharashtra governor’s address to the state legislature, the Shiv Sena on Tuesday claimed that Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis shied away from speaking in Marathi at public events. Fadnavis was trying to portray the image of a “leader of all languages”, the Sena claimed, adding that the state government was “pessimistic” towards the Marathi language. Then someone else talks in an insulting language about Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj and now, there are problems in translating the Marathi language,” it said, taking potshots at the BJP-led state government.
