With Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) supremo Raj Thackeray announcing that his party would be carrying out massive rally in Mumbai on 9 February in support of the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), Shiv Sena has jumped into action and said that Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslims in India must be thrown out, reports Asian News International (ANI).
The latest comment from the Shiv Sena comes as the 9 February MNS rally would be directed at driving Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslims out of India. Making the comment, in its mouthpiece Saamana, Shiv Sena also attacked MNS over supporting CAA.
Shiv Sena in Saamana questioned the support to CAA announced by MNS given that the party had earlier opposed the Act only a month ago.
Further trying to position itself as a party committed to Hindutva cause, Shiv Sena said, "Our party has never given up its ideology of Hindutva and also worked for Marathi people. This is the reason why people in the state have accepted us."
He further attacked MNS by saying, “Some people use the name of Hindutva for their benefit, but even if some party does that we have the large heart to accept them. Go ahead if possible”

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
