Condemning the terror attack on Amarnath yatris, Shiv Sena Chief Uddhav Thackeray Tuesday asked: “Should I now believe that instead of grenades and arms, if beef was found in the bags of these terrorists, not a single one of them would have escaped. We have this entire farce around Gauraksha and Gaurakshaks. Why don’t you send these rakshaks to take on the terrorists,” Thackeray said, while addressing a gathering of Ganesh mandals in Mumbai.
He also took a swipe at those who he claimed had been asking the Sena not to mix politics with culture and sports when it had opposed Pakistani actors and sportspersons. “We were told not to mix politics with culture and sport. But yesterday religion and politics were mixed and terrorists attacked innocent pilgrims. Do you have the guts to say the same things that you told us to these terrorists,” Thackeray asked.
The Sena has stated that the government needs to do more than plain lip service to rein in terror in Jammu & Kashmir.
