 to divert attention from the weak financial condition of the country, then it is wrong. But if these acts have been introduced to cleanse the country, then they should be strictly implemented.
I have supported the issues like Ram Temple verdict, scrapping of article 370 etc. There is nothing like anti or pro BJP. Whatever is good is good and bas is bad.
I had organised similar morcha a few years back, when the “Raza Academy” had organised a morcha (in support of Rohingya Muslims) and during the morcha their activists had assaulted even women police constables, Thackeray reminded the audience.
 Maharashtra politics after successive electoral drubbings in the last ten years, is trying to fill the Hindutva vacuum believed to have been created after the Shiv Sena joined hands with the NCP and Congress to form a government in November last year.
Raj Thackeray-led MNS launched its new party flag, ahead of its day-long Maha adhiveshan (mega meeting). The new saffron-coloured flag of the party also features Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj’s, Raj Mudra. Raj Thackeray’s son Amit Thackeray has also been inducted into the party.
