    • Express news service Tags : MNS chief Raj, uncle Bal Thackeray, meet Posted: Sunday , Nov 23, 2008 at 0301 hrs

    Raj said the two did not discuss politics or his pro-Maharashtrian campaign, adding that Thackeray senior’s health was good. Shiv Sena spokesman and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut, too, said the meeting was a domestic matter. Raj said he had been in touch with his uncle over the phone occasionally since 2006. Thackeray senior, he added, had spoken to him after his release from police custody following his arrest last month in connection with the MNS attacks on north Indians taking railway job exams. Bal Thackeray had recalled his own experience of being jailed in 1969 during the Sena’s campaign over the Maharashtra border dispute, he added.

    We need Hindu savioursBy: Baatul a Bengali | 24-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward Its better for Raj to get back to Balasaheb's fold. Shiv Sena and MNS have the same agenda. Most of India looks upto them as saviour from the political parties who are making it difficult for Hindus to live with their head held high.

    Raj ThakerayBy: Mohinder Singh Bains | 23-Nov-2008 Reply | Forward Parochial Hindu militants like Raj Thakeray, who has no farsight beyond their narrow communal agenda, are the worst threat to the Indian nation. The dangerous politics of conflict which he is playing by Maharashtrrians agaginst the Northern Indians, and others, can lead India to disintegration. Such were the intolerant Indians who are responsible for the creation of Pakistan, and Bangladesh. They are unable to see India beyond their nose, India which has much more religious, linguistic, and cultural diversity than the rest of the world. Indians should encourage the ultra secular strong leaders to come forward to govern India with pluralistic secular policies to save India from self-destruction, the path Raj Thakeray is laying out.
