Raj Thackeray to start cartoon weekly in Marathi

Mumbai, Oct 14 (UNI) Following the footsteps of his cartoonist uncle and Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) president Raj Thackeray is all set to start his cartoon weekly in Marathi from March/April next year, which will be the 'mouthpiece' of his party.

Talking to UNI, Mr Raj said, ''I am working on the weekly and it will have political and social information and of course, the party's stand.'' More than four decades back, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray had started his own cartoon weekly 'Marmik' in Marathi, before he launched his own newspaper 'Saamna' in late 90's.
