Mumbai, 6/5: Launching a scathing attack on Uddhav Thackeray, the BJP and the Rane-family on Saturday alleged that the former chief minister only understands “dhan ki baat” and smelled a conspiracy behind the Shiv Sena (UBT)’s stand against the proposed super-refinery project at Ratnagiri.
Union MSME Minister and Rajya Sabha member Narayan Rane’s sons – Dr Nilesh Rane, a former Congress MP from Ratnagiri-Sindhudurg and Nitesh Rane, the BJP MLA from Kankavli, staged a protest at Rajapur on Saturday against Thackeray’s visit to Basru, where the Rs 3 lakh-crore Ratnagiri Refinery and Petrochemicals Ltd (RRPCL) project, would be coming up.
They also said that they would ensure that the project comes up and people of the coastal Konkan get benefits.
“The Centre as well as the Eknath Shinde-Devendra Fadnavis government in Maharashtra has made it very clear that the locals would be taken along and their queries and issues would be addressed,” Nilesh said
