BJP trying to destabilise Maharashtra govt: Shiv Sena on violence in Amravati, other places

Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut said the state government is firm in the saddle and the real faces of the perpetrators of violence will be exposed soon.

Aurangabad: In a veiled attack on opposition BJP, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Saturday (November 13) said the violence in Maharashtra's Amravati and other places is aimed at destabilising the MVA government.

Speaking to reporters here on the Amravati violence wherein a mob hurled stones and damaged shops this morning during a bandh allegedly called by BJP, Raut said the state government is firm in the saddle and that the real faces of the perpetrators of violence will be exposed soon.

The violence on Saturday (November 13) occurred during the bandh (shutdown) against Friday's stone-pelting incidents during rallies held by Muslim organisations in various districts in protest against the Tripura communal violence.
