CM warns of action against Raj Thackeray
Monday, May 05, 2008 17:45 [IST]

MUMBAI: Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh has warned of stringent action against MNS chief Raj Thackeray if anything objectionable is found in his May 3 speech.

Earlier on Monday, various political parties demanded action against Raj Thackeray for his recent outburst against north Indian migrants.

Samajwadi Party, whose leaders Amar Singh and Abu Asim Azmi have been the perennial target of Raj's ire, hit back, demanding that the MNS chief be arrested and charged under MCOCA.

"Such rogue elements should not be allowed to roam freely, endangering communal and regional harmony", Azmi said.

Leaders of Rashtriya Janata Dal, whose chief Lalu Prasad Yadav was threatened by Raj at his May 3 rally, planned to write to Deshmukh that Raj Thackeray be arrested for inciting regional hatred, party sources said.

Singh has alleged that there was a collusion between Raj, Deshmukh and NCP chief Sharad Pawar, as a result of which the MNS chief is being accorded "shield by police".

The SP leader also alleged that Pawar's relative and former IPS officer Vikram Bokey, a key functionary of MNS, was the Chief Financer of the two-year old outfit.

Maharashtra Congress spokesperson Sanjay Nirupam said that a proper scrutiny of Raj's speech should be done as early as possible and if his speech violates law of the land and the Constitutional provisions, stern action should be taken against him.
