"Public has understood that Hindi hatred is bigger than Marathi love": Shiv Sena Manisha Kayande

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 30 (ANI): Shiv Sena leader Manisha Kayande on Monday, speaking on the imposition of Hindi in the state, stated that the public had understood that the hatred of the Hindi language was bigger than the love for Marathi.
"Naturally, there will be a credit war. Both Thackerays are engaged in it, but what the public has understood is that Hindi hatred is bigger than Marathi love. Isn't Hindi our Indian language?... No one ever said we don't have to learn English... This hypocrisy was visible somewhere, and that was also visible in this, and the hatred towards Hindi, which was coming out unnecessarily. We love our mother tongue, Marathi... No one needs to teach us what Marathi love is..." Kayande told ANI.
Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) Chief Uddhav Thackeray celebrated the withdrawal of the three-language policy in the state and stated that they had punched Marathi haters, and the unity in the state should remain as it is.
He further stated that a new committee led by Narendra Jadhav would report on the decision, further stating that the government had appointed financial experts for the decision in the education sector.
"We have punched Marathi haters; this unity should remain as it is. We appreciate the political parties which came together with us despite different stands. Temporarily, they (the Government) have cancelled the GR. If they hadn't cancelled, they would have seen the protest on 5th July. Many leaders from Eknath Shinde's Shiv Sena and Ajit Pawar's NCP are going to join us. A new committee led by Dr Narendra Jadhav will report on this. The government has appointed financial experts for the education sector's decision. We will stage a victory rally on 5th July," Thackeray said, speaking to reporters here.
Party MP Sanjay Raut lashed out at the BJP for making false claims of former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray accepting the Mashelkar committee's report on the three-language policy.
Addressing the media, Raut stated that lying was the BJP's "national policy.", further challenging the BJP that if Thackeray had submitted the Mashelkar committee report, it should have been made public.
"Lying is the BJP's national policy. These people are working with this policy in Maharashtra. If Uddhav Thackeray had submitted a report on the Mashelkar committee, it should be made public. A committee report has been released and placed in the cabinet. Can't this be discussed? You forcefully discussed Hindi with the cabinet -- you did it because it's a national policy. If any national policy comes before the state, then discussing it is very important. Devendra Fadnavis has become the chief minister three times--does he not have that much knowledge?" Raut said, addressing a press conference. (ANI)
