Thackeray’s hate talk needs to be stopped

E-mail Print PDF
Feb.04 : Sir, Hitting out at Rahul Gandhi for his statements on the role of north Indians in protecting Mumbai during the 26/11 terror attacks, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray spewed venom. Mr Thackeray said that “frustration sets in when a person doesn’t get married despite advancing age” and that Mr Gandhi “is a victim of this disease”. It seems that criticising is Mr Thackeray’s favourite pastime. He attacked Sachin Tendulkar, Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and now Rahul Gandhi. Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamna has turned into a medium for mudslinging. When Mr Gandhi says, “every part of India belongs to every Indian and all Indians have every right to go and work anywhere in the country”, people will listen to him rather than to Mr Thackeray. It is time to impose restrictions on Saamna and contain Mr Thackeray’s hate speeches.
