Ajit Pawar attacks Raj Thackeray over warning against use of loudspeakers at mosques
The deputy chief minister said that Maharashtra has ensured communal harmony for years, but ’leaders of some parties’ have of late been talking about installing loudspeakers ‘here and there’ Mumbai: Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar has attacked MNS president Raj Thackeray over the latter’s demand for removal of loudspeakers from mosques, saying the state cannot afford the alleged divisive call given “to please someone eyeing polls”. Without naming Thackeray, Pawar asked what the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief was going to achieve by making such statements and whether “provoking” people will solve the issue of their livelihood. Taunting Thackeray, Pawar said it is easy to deliver speeches, and added that MNS functionaries themselves have questioned the party chief’s remark as they have to face the people and get elected again. “As a city unit president, I certainly have to accept the stand of party chief Rajsaheb Thackeray, but I think as a people’s representative, the issue can be inconvenient for me in my ward.
