Mumbai, 1/05: Former Maharashtra CM and Leader of Opposition Devendra Fadnavis on Sunday hit out at the BJP’s former ally Shiv Sena, claiming that not a single leader or worker from the party was present when the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya was brought down.
Without naming Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena President Uddhav Thackeray, he said it was the ‘kar sevaks’ who brought it down.
Fadnavis also lashed out at the Maha Vikas Aghadi government and accused it of rampant corruption and misuse of office while addressing the Mumbai BJP’s ‘booster dose’ rally.
Late Shiv Sena supremo Balasaheb Thackeray, post the demolition of the Babri structure on December 6, 1992, had said: “Babri padli, ti padnarya Shiv Sainikancha mala abhiman ahe” (I am proud of the Shiv Sainiks who razed Babri).
