Thackeray urges people not to call on him without appointment

Mumbai, Apr 02 (UNI) Shiv Sena Chief Bal Thackeray today urged the people not to call on him at Matoshri, Bandra without prior appointment.

In a statement appeared in Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamna, Mr Thackeray, who had turned 81 on January 23, said 'nowadays I meet very few people since I don't have that much strength'.
