Uddhav's veiled attack on Kangana Ranaut
In his Dussehra speech, Uddhav Thackeray took a veiled attack on Kangana Ranaut who, he said, has slandered Mumbai, its police and all "sons of Maharashtra". Uddhav Thackeray said, "They don't know in our house we grow tulsi, not ganja. Ganja fields are in your state, you know where not in our Maharashtra."
Responding to Uddhav Thackeray's "Ganja fields in your state" jibe, Kangana Ranaut, in a series of tweets, said Himachal is called a "Dev Bhumi" as it has a maximum number of temples. Calling Uddhav Thackeray a "petty person", Kangana Ranaut further said Himachal Pradesh has zero crime rate.
"Chief Minister you are a very petty person, Himachal is called Dev Bhumi it has the maximum number of temples also no zero crime rate, yes it has a very fertile land it grows apples, kiwis, pomegranate, strawberries one can grow anything here," Kangana Ranaut said.
In another tweet, Kangana Ranaut said, "You being a leader having such a vengeful, myopic and ill informed views about a state which has has been the abode of Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati along with many great saints like Markandya and Manu Rishi, Pandavas spent large part of their exile in Himachal Pardesh"
"You should be ashamed of yourself chief minister, being a public servant you are indulging in petty fights, using your power to insult, damage and humiliate people who don't agree with you, you don't deserve the chair you have acquired by playing dirty politics. SHAME," she said.
Alleging "bullying" by Uddhav Thackeray, Kangana Ranaut said, "I am overwhelmed at this open bullying by a working CM so there is a typo in first tweet, it should be no crime in Himachal, yes clarifying again we don't have poor or very rich people or any crimes in Himachal, it's a spiritual place with very innocent and kind people."
"Look at the audacity of a working CM he is dividing the country who has made him Maharashtra ka thekedaar? He is just a public servant there was someone else before him soon he will be out someone else will come to serve the state, why is he behaving like he owns Maharashtra?"
The Shiv Sena-led coalition government has been at the receiving end of criticism by Kangana over the death of Sushant Singh in June this year. While Mumbai Police termed it a suicide case, Sushant’s family filed a case against Rhea Chakraborty, alleging abetment to suicide and misappropriation of funds. Rhea and her family are now being investigated by the Central Bureau of Investigation, the Enforcement Directorate, and the Narcotics Control Bureau.
She further said, “Raut called me Haramkhor now Uddhav called me namak haram, he is claiming I won’t get food in my state if Mumbai does not give me shelter, shame on you I am your son’s age this is how you speak to a self made single woman, Chief Minister you are the worse product of nepotism.”
