He claimed that Sena was and always will be Hindutvawadi.
“We don’t need to get our Hindutva certification from anywhere. We were, we are and always will be. Hindutvawadi. We don’t play Hindutva politics like they do. Whenever the country needs us, Shiv Sena will always show up wielding the sword of Hindutva, “Raut said while speaking to reporters.
Previously, Mr. Raut had said that the BJP should not take credit for the Hindutva victory as the Center made the decision to close the religious sites amid the COVID-19 pandemic and they are now set to reopen in Maharashtra.
“The closure was imposed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the decision to close the temples was also taken by him, so there is no reason for the BJP to take credit for Hindutva’s victory in this matter. I think the Prime Minister there will be to tell the meaning of victory and defeat to those people, “Raut said while reacting to the question asked by a reporter who said, BJP claims that the reopening of religious places here is Hindutva’s victory.
All religious sites in Maharashtra reopened for devotees as of November 16, after several months of closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) reported.
