Thackeray defends Bajarang Dal

Mumbai, Oct 8 (UNI) Criticising the ruling Congress-NCP government for pampering the minority community, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray today defended the Bajrang Dal.

In an editorial in the party mouthpiece 'Saamna' titled, 'Hinduno quarbanis sajja va' (Hindus be prepared for sacrifice), Mr Thackeray stressed that the organisation is advocating religion and culture for Hindus.

Citing the incidents of riots in Thane and Dhule districts of Maharashtra, he ridiculed Union Agriculture Minister Sharad Pawar for advising to take care of Muslims.

The edit wondered what do these leaders want to give to Muslims who are already enjoying many facilities under various schemes.
