“Our 'Hindutva' is 'Gadadhari'. Rahul Bhat was killed by terrorists at Tehsil's office in J&K, now what will you (BJP) do? Will you read Hanuman Chalisa there?” Thackeray said.
Thackeray also targeted the saffron party on the issue of loudspeakers atop mosques and Hanuman Chalisa saying that the party "had given loudspeakers to its A, B, and C teams and asked them to visit Aurangzeb's tomb and recite Hanuman Chalisa."
"While BJP will watch the tamasha and address press conferences," he charged.
The Shiv Sena chief who went spinal surgery last Novemner and addressed a public rally for the first time after two years, sounded the bugle for upcoming civic poll including for Mumbai, and said attempts to break Mumbai from Maharashtra will never be allowed to succeed.
