Maharashtra Politics: Shiv Sena UBT leader Anand Dubey has retaliated by the statement made by Nitesh Rane, a minister in the Maharashtra government and BJP leader Nitesh Rane. He said that Nitesh Rane and his entire family used to be an worker of Uddhav Thackeray’s party and they do not suit him.

Anand Dubey said in a conversation with news agency ANI, “Nitesh Rane’s height is not as big as Uddhav Thackeray. BJP gives him strength and nourishes him and asks him to speak against us, this does not mean that whatever he says about us, we will tolerate him.”

‘Worked to cheat Hindus’
He further said, “You guys have always worked to cheat Hindus. You told us that there will be no terrorist attacks after demonetisation. Our Hindu siblings are dying in terrorist attacks. Nearly two months (Pahalgam attacks) have passed, yet they are still unable to catch the terrorists.”

He also said, “Before calling us Tipu Sultan, see if you are not a descendant of Abdali, you are not the thinker of the Mughals. Do not teach us Hindutva, we carry Balasaheb’s Hindutva but you carry a knife in your mouth.”

Let us know that recently on the occasion of Shiv Sena’s foundation day, Shiv Sena UBT chief Uddhav Thackeray had targeted BJP leader Nitesh Rane fiercely. He even called Rane to Pangwin and Duck. In response, on Saturday (June 21), Nitesh Rane targeted Uddhav Thackeray.

What did Nitesh Rane say?
Nitesh Rane said during the press conference, “I call him a jihadi heart emperor, he wants to please his clerics. I am a worker working for Hindutva, I am a worker working to protect the community, so the work of a worker working for Hindutva is harassing Uddhav Thackeray.”

‘Examples of political love jihad’
He further said, “Celebrate your anniversary in Pakistan, Islamabad, Karachi. You are there. Now the best example of political conversion, the best example of political love jihad is Uddhav Thackeray.”
