Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Tuesday launched a scathing attack on Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis over the Nagpur violence and claimed that the BJP was trying to make Maharashtra the next Manipur.
00:00You are asking my reaction to the Nagpur incident, but I want to know why the Chief Minister's office reacted when the rumours started spreading.
00:09Whenever such incidents take place in a city, and this is the Chief Minister's city, he is the Chief Minister and he is also the Home Minister,
00:18and it is assumed, I have also seen the CMO very closely, whenever such incidents take place, the first report comes to the CMO on the CM's mobile phone.
00:26It comes to the Home Department as well. Both departments are with him.
00:30Didn't they know that this was going to happen?
00:32My assumption is that BJP wants to make Maharashtra a Manipur.
00:35If you look at Manipur, there have been riots the same way for the past year.
00:41Someone is being burnt, someone is being killed.
00:44Will the investment go there today?
00:47Will any tourism go there? No, it won't.
00:49And this is what they want to do to Maharashtra.
00:51They want to make Manipur a Maharashtra.
00:53And wherever BJP doesn't know how to rule, riots take place.
00:57In the last three months, different issues have been raised.
01:01Do you think the Nagpur incident will have any impact?
01:04Today, I was reading somewhere that the country Vietnam is much smaller than us.
01:08It is smaller in population, smaller in size, but their electronic industry is three times larger than ours.
01:13We consider our country to be powerful, but what BJP wants to do today is to break this power.
01:18They want to divide us into religions, districts, and castes.
01:24So that we don't show our power to the world.
01:27And the government that they run, is a failure.
01:30Since the new government was formed in the last three to four months,
01:33you have seen innumerable rapes, innumerable atrocities.
01:36Farmers are committing suicide.
01:38You may or may not know, but I know through you that the central government is falling.
01:45Nifty has fallen the most in the last 28 years.
01:49And to hide all these news, they are talking about graves.
