Watch | Thackeray's response to minister's Babri Masjid remark: ‘All rats were hiding when…’

Hindustan Times  

Shiv Sena faction leader Uddhav Thackeray trained his guns on minister and Bharatiya Janata Party leader Chandrakant Patil on Tuesday after the latter's remarks a day earlier about the demolition of the Babri Masjid in Uttar Pradesh. The ex-Maharashtra chief minister demanded rival and successor Eknath Shinde - who led the rebellion last year that fractured the Shiv Sena and ousted Thackeray - either resign or seek Patil's resignation. Chandrakant Patil, the state minister for higher and technical education, had referred to Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut - who is a senior leader in Uddhav Thackeray's Sena faction - and his statements about the Masjid demolition. Patil's remarks have become the latest flashpoint between the two Sena factions since Maharashtra was driven into a political crisis after Shinde - with help from the BJP and former chief minister Devendra Fadnavis toppled last June the Uddhav Thackeray-led Maha Vikas Aghadi government that included Sharad Pawar's Nationalist Congress Party and the Congress.
