MUMBAI: Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray Sunday launched a searing attack on the Bjp, questioning the Hindutva of “ringing bells and utensils”, and challenging the Modi regime to overthrow his government.
“Since the day I became CM, I have been hearing different dates about the overthrow of my government. So far it hasn’t happened … if you have the courage … then go ahead and do it, ”said Thackeray, who heads a Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress alliance in the state. He will complete a year in office on November 28.
Thackeray was addressing the party’s annual Dussehra rally from the Veer Savarkar auditorium in Shivaji Park with limited attendance. The rally was changed to the interior taking into account the Covid security protocol.
In a boundless attack on the BJP in his Dussehra rally speech, Prime Minister Uddhav Thackeray He said that at a time when the country was in the grip of a pandemic, “a peculiar thing is happening,” the Center is focused on overthrowing governments in states not ruled by the BJP. The nation is on the brink of chaos due to the BJP’s unbridled greed for power, he said, “They (the BJP) have been misleading their partners. The NDA is finished. They talk about friendship and then stab their friends in the back. Nitish Kumar will be treated similarly after the assembly elections in Bihar. ”
The chief minister, the BJP’s target for not reopening places of worship, said that Sena’s Hindutva is not limited to the symbolism of saucers and lamps. “Defeating the terrorists is the idea of the Hindutva Seine,” he declared.
Thackeray cited Mohan Bhagwat’s Dussehra speech in which RSS Sar Sanghchalak said that praying in temples or performing poojas should not be equated with Hindutva. “Everyone who writes me letters should pay attention to Bhagwat first,” he said in a not-so-oblique reference to Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari’s recent letter questioning the Sena’s commitment to Hindutva while demanding that places of worship be re Opened.
Thackeray also criticized the BJP for its promise of a free vaccine to the people of Bihar if it retained power. “You are talking about giving free vaccines in Bihar. Is the rest of the country part of Pakistan or Bangladesh? Thackeray asked.
Referring to Sushant Singh Rajput In this case, Thackeray said that those who “cry out for justice for the son of Bihar” are “allowing the murder of the character of the son of Maharashtra, (Aaditya thackeray) and the Bombay Police “.
“There was a lot of confusion about the government, about our family and even about Aaditya. However, since we were clean, we didn’t have to worry, but those who indulge in these tricks stink of cow urine, “Thackeray said.
The CM said that the Modi government has not helped the state financially despite several natural disasters since June, and it has also failed to pay GST fees worth Rs 38 billion to the state. He urged the CMs of all states to bridge the differences between parties and put pressure on the Center to carry out a comprehensive review of the GST.
“When they introduced GST, we were against it. It is a faulty system. I call on CMs in other states to participate in a debate on the issue. GST should be eliminated if it doesn’t work, and the previous regime of the tax collection system should be reactivated, ”he said.
Thackeray said that in the recent past many have tried to smear the state and the city. “Someone said Mumbai is like PoK… they come to Mumbai for work and then they smear the city. This is equivalent to namak harami, ”Thackeray said without naming Kangana Ranaut. “A narrative has been painted to show that the entire city and state is a haven for drugs. Everyone here is addicted to drugs. Any attempt to smear Mumbai and the state will be dealt with strictly, ”Thackeray said.
