I followed Balasaheb's directions as a BVS President: Raj

Pune, Feb 7 (UNI) Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader Raj Thackeray, while referring to the opposition of Bhartiya Vidyarthi Sena to the Valentine's Day, today said he had only followed directions of Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray.

The MNS chief said when he was the president of Bhartiya Vidyarthi Sena the agitational programmes organised by the outfit were according to the directions of Mr Bal Thackeray.

''Marking occasions like these would have no bearing on the thousands year old Indian culture,'' he added.
