Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Tuesday alleged that BJP is inciting riots in Maharashtra, adding that the saffron party\u2019s version of Hindutva is not acceptable to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking at a students\u2019 gathering at Hyderabad\u2019s Gitam University Aaditya Thackeray launched a scathing attack on the BJP, saying that right-wing party\u2019s party version of Hindutva was unacceptable to him, his father and grandfather (Balasaheb Thackeray) and to all the people of Maharashtra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thackeray said that for him, Hindutva is clearly defined and \u201cwe don\u2019t burn people over what they eat\u201d, adding that the BJP was inciting riots in Maharashtra to disturb communal harmony ahead of next year\u2019s Lok Sabha elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aaditya Thackeray also accused the BJP of \u201cbackstabbing\u201d the then undivided Shiv Sena in 2014 and is now inciting riots in Maharashtra\u2026. \u201cI am a Hindu and was a Hindu even when the BJP broke its alliance with the Shiv Sena in 2014. The BJP backstabbed us in 2014. We were Hindus then; we are Hindus now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Shiv Sena (UBT) leader, further said that the Ram Temple in Ayodhya was being constructed because of the Supreme Court\u2019s decision, not because of the Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thackeray also took aim at the BJP for allegedly abandoning the issue of Kashmiri pandits, asking why the \u201cworld’s largest pro-Hindutva party\u201d wasn\u2019t speaking about the plight of Kashmiri pandits who are being killed in target killings even to this day, while the BJP had promised to provide them safe haven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thackeray said that the BJP did not respect Bal Thackeray\u2019s ideology because they wouldn\u2019t have tried to destroy the party he built from scratch if that was the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On being asked if the BJP or Eknath Shinde is the bigger threat to the Shiv Sena (UBT), Thackeray said the Maharashtra Chief Minister isn\u2019t a threat at all, while also adding that they don\u2019t have any personal issues with the BJP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
