THANE: Maharashtra chief minister Eknath Shinde condemned UBT leader Uddhav Thackeray’s recent comment seeking validation from Pakistan about the ‘real’ Shiv Sena and called it unfortunate for the state and the country.
"It is indeed shameful that they (Thackeray) feel the need for getting certification from Pakistan to prove if their Sena was the real one or not. There cannot be anything more unfortunate than such a comment made by him and it must have indeed hurt Balasaheb a lot more. Isn't it surprising that they (MVA) take action on those who chant Hanuman Chalisa, but support those who have had associations with Dawood (Ibrahim)," said Shinde while speaking at an event, Sunday late.
