Nitish not to pursue any political motive during his visit: Raj Thakeray | Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray on Friday said Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar will not pursue any political motive during his visit to Maharashtra . “Following the statements coming from Nitish Kumar
and Devesh Thakur, who clarified that the event does not have a political agenda,
they are not going to pursue any political motive,” said Thackeray. Reiterating
his opposition to events organized by northern Indian outfits to draw policital
mileage, Thackeray said that he spoke to Nitish Kumar over the phone and told
him that he will continue to do so in such cases. “I have spoken to Nitish Kumar
over telephone and I told him parties from northern India like Samajwadi Party
and outfits of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar use such events for political gain and
I have always opposed this and would continue to do so,” said Thackeray. Blaming
the media for the creating misunderstanding between Nitish Kumar and Thackeray
former Bihar minister Devesh Chandra Thakur said neither of them were wrong. “The
misunderstanding have been clarified, I told him that neither his nor the chief
minister’s statements were wrong, it was the media who presented a wrong picture
of the situation. Other than this we told him that our program is purely cultural
in nature and has no political motive,” said Thakur. “I gave him the details of
the event after which he got convinced, for which we thank him. He then informed
the press that differences had been resolved,” he added. Thackeray on Thursday
dared Nitish Kumar to celebrate “Bihar Divas” in Mumbai. In response to Thackeray’s
statement, Nitish Kumar had earlier in the day said that it was beyond his thinking
as to why his proposed visit to Mumbai to celebrate ‘Bihar Divas’ would hurt the
emotions of people of Maharashtra. |
