BJP leader Shaina NC's father's office vandalised for 'anti-Marathi' poster

April 15, 2015 18:15

Unidentified persons today created a ruckus at the South Mumbai office of former Mumbai sheriff Nana Chudasama, to protest his 'anti-Marathi' banner, days after Shiv Sena staged a protest against columnist Shobha De for opposing a government order on screening Marathi movies.

"My father has been writing these banners. The banner in question read: Promoting Marathi welcome. Diktats not welcome. Tell me, what is wrong in this banner. It is not anti-Marathi. You can't barge into an 84-year-old's office and burn a banner," Chudasama's daughter and BJP spokesperson Shaina NC said, reacting to the development.

According to staffers at the office, the attackers were allegedly from MNS but the Raj Thackeray-led outfit has so far not commented on this.
