BJP keeps off Rana couples plans to teach Hindutva to Thackeray #IndiaNEWS #National
Mumbai, April 22 | The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday distanced itself from the campaign launched by independent MP and ex-filmstar Navneet Rana and her MLA husband Ravi to teach Hindutva lessons to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray.
Leader of Opposition (Council) Pravin Darekar categorically said it was the Rana couples initiative and the BJP had nothing to do with it.
The Ranas reached Mumbai from Amravati ostensibly to recite Hanuman Chalisa outside the private residence of Chief Minister Thackeray, Matoshri in Bandra east and to remind him of the Hindutva he had allegedly abandoned by allying Shiv Sena with Nationalist Congress Party-Congress.
However, a Kherwadi Police Station team rushed to the Ranas home in Khar and slapped prohibitory orders on them under CrPC Sec. 149.
Hundreds of Shiv Sainiks led by senior leaders like Anil Desai, Vinayak Parab, ex-Mayor Kishori Pednekar, Yuva Sena and Womens Wing gathered outside Matoshri to counter the Ranas plans.
Let them come here and render Hanuma Chalisa, we are ready to serve them Maha Prasad (a beating) in Shiv Sena style, warned Desai.
Parab warned that if the Rana couple tried to target the Thackerays home, Shiv Sainiks will not keep quiet and give them a befitting reply.
In Nagpur, Sena MP and Chief Spokesperson Sanjay Raut dismissed the Ranas as Bunty and Babli who have reached Mumbai to perform stunts to please their political bosses.
Pednekar said those who cannot win elections without the support of the BJP are now trying to foment trouble for Maha Vikas Aghadi government with such nautanki (dramatics) to divert attention from the countrys major problems like inflation, fuel price hikes and unemployment.
Their whole game-plan is to create disturbances in Maharashtra and impose Presidents rule and declare Mumbai as a Union Territory ahead of the upcoming civic elections. They have no courage to do this in BJP-ruled states, Pednekar said.
Taking a cue from the planned Hanuman Chalisa crusade outside mosques of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) President Raj Thackeray, the Rana couple jumped into the controversy with their own brand of imparting Hindutva lessons to Thackeray.
Barred by the police notice, the Ranas plan to address their stance through a media conference later this afternoon giving anxious moments to the law-enforcing authorities.
Meanwhile, the Mumbai Police deployed tight security outside Thackerays private and official residences and also NCP President Sharad Pawars Silver Oak bungalow which was attacked by agitating state transport employees on April 8.
