83-year-old Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray, who did not vote in the recently held Lok Sabha polls, cast his vote in suburban Bandra on Tuesday. He also urged the people of the state to oust parties which were dividing the Marathi votes, and topple the ruling Congress-Nationalist Congress Party government in the state. His veiled attack was obviously directed towards his estranged nephew and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray.
