Karnataka flag row: ‘Why is BJP not reacting’ asks Shiv Sena

Mumbai, Jul 25: Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray criticised and questioned the silence of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led Union government for not taking a strict view of the Karnataka government’s demand for a separate flag.

The Sena said such a demand is an offence and sedition charges should be charged against them regarding this.

“States like Karnataka are demanding their own flags…leave the Congress, but what about the BJP,” Thackeray said in an interview to Marathi mouthpiece, Saamana, and its Marathi tabloid version, Dophar ka Samaana, on the eve of his 57th birthday on 27 July.

He later said “Let the central government dissolve the Siddaramaiah-led Congress government in Karnataka or stop all assistance to it. The Narendra Modi-led Central government will not take any tough steps in Karnataka because the BJP wants to win the upcoming assembly election there.”

“It is unfortunate that the BJP has not been able to reverse the special status to Jammu & Kashmir.” He added.

Undivided Dakshina Kannada was always peaceful. Once Sangh parivar came to power in Karnataka previous election the atrocities started. Killings , murders, attacks on churches and properties of minorities. Kannadigas do we need Non Residents of karnataka to dictate whom to vote in 2018 elections. 2023 elections we may not be alive.

There is one more protest going on regarding HINDI imposition in South Indian States. There are 2 Thackareys in mumbai one is supporting the above mentioned. Gujarat is a state where signboards or highway signs are having only Gujrati and English. Why include Hindi in SOUTH.
