What was Raj Thackeray’s statement?
On this statement of Nishikant Dubey, a few days later, Raj Thackeray said in a very sharp way that “an MP says that you will beat and beat you, you will come to Mumbai, you will kill you in the sea.” Thackeray also raised the question, “Does there be any case on Dubey? You roam around with a 56 -inch chest?” He also said that if Marathi is insulted, then “cheeks and hands will definitely be a combination.”
After this statement, political temperature has increased in the whole of Maharashtra. At the same time, Nishikant Dubey has given his response to X immediately, not spending much time, but has not issued any statement yet.
