Maharashtra Loudspeaker Row: Why Raj Thackeray is getting 'loud' on the issue? | Ghanti Bajao

Setting the stage for a possible confrontation as he urged people to show the "strength of a Hindu now or never", Maharashtra Navnirman Sena President Raj Thackeray late on Tuesday called upon the people to play "Hanuman Chalisa" outside those mosques where "azaans' (prayer calls) are sounded from Wednesday.

"I appeal to all Hindus that tomorrow, the 4th of May, if you hear the loudspeakers blaring with azaans; in those very places, play the Hanuman Chalisa on the loudspeakers! That's when they will realise the hindrance of these loudspeakers!" he said.
