Speaking to media persons, MNS Spokesperson, Sandeep Deshpande, referred to the Congress MP’s known opposition to the Hindutva ideologue “We are making it absolutely clear. If Rahul Gandhi makes any defamatory statements or objectionable remarks against Swatantryaveer Savarkar, then the 14 crore people of Maharashtra will not allow him to move around the state said Deshpande.

He said the MNS will not oppose the Congress-INDI Alliance rally at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj park – which is opposite the Swatantryaveer Savarkar in Dadar west – but will not tolerate it if the former Congress President makes unsavory remarks against the Hindutva idol.

However, Shiv Sena (UBT) MP, Sanjay Raut, made light of Deshpande’s remarks and said the party was speaking without enjoying any mass credibility. Injustice is being meted out to the Marathis daily and only the Shiv Sena (UBT) is fighting for their cause. The MNS is talking on behalf of the gujarati lobby,” said Raut dismissively.

A Mumbai congress leader also questioned the locus standi and credentials of the MNS in issuing such warnings to MP Rahul Gandhi. saying the party will not be cowed down by such utterances.
