Maharashtra: BJP retaliates on Aditya Thackeray's statement of 'government of traitors

Maharashtra Bharatiya Janata Party president Chandrashekhar Bawankule on Sunday attacked Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) leader Aaditya Thackeray over his alleged remarks on Chief Minister Eknath Shinde-led government in the state and advised him to "save your home".

In an indirect attack on the opposition parties in Maharashtra, Bawankule said their leaders have joined the BJP in the last few months. Congress, Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) should first save their glass house as it is breaking everyday.

Bawankule's remarks came in the backdrop of Aditya Thackeray's statement claiming that the coalition government of Eknath Shinde and Devendra Fadnavis would collapse in the next two months. Speaking at a job fair organized by the Shiv Sena in Thane on Saturday, Aaditya Thackeray had alleged that the Shiv Sena-BJP coalition government at Balasahebchi had only divided Maharashtra and done nothing for its people. He had said that the government of traitors would fall in the next two months.
