The Hindu
Palghar Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray criticizes PM Modi, vows to scrap Vadhavan port project, and opposes BJP corruption.
Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on April 12 hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his "fake Shiv Sena" remark, and said his party was not like "your degree".
Speaking at a campaign rally at Boisar near Mumbai for his party's Palghar Lok Sabha constituency candidate Bharti Kamdi, Mr. Thackeray also claimed that the Opposition INDIA grouping will cross the 300-mark and defeat the BJP.
He also vowed to scrap the Vadhavan port project in Palghar district, which he said is opposed by local fishermen.

Attacking the Union Government and BJP, Mr. Thackeray alleged that good projects were being taken to Gujarat, while environmentally destructive projects were being introduced in Maharashtra. He also assured that a new airport will be built in Palghar.
"The Shiv Sena, founded by the Shiv Sena pramukh (Bal Thackeray) to fight for the rights of sons of soil, is being called fake. It is not your degree to call it fake," Mr. Thackeray said.
Earlier this week, at a rally in Maharashtra, Mr. Modi had dubbed the Mr. Thackeray-led Sena as fake. "INDIA alliance partner DMK is talking about finishing Sanatan and linking Sanatana Dharma to malaria and dengue. And the Congress and the fake Shiv Sena are calling the same people for rallies in Maharashtra," the PM had said.
