Nitesh Rane is the son of Union Minister Narayan Rane. When reporters asked him why he had hazed Thackeray junior in this manner, he replied defiantly: "I will do it again. I will do it every time."
A video has emerged showing BJP MLA Nitesh Rane taunting Maharashtra minister Aaditya Thackeray as he entered the legislature building last week. #WATCH Video emerges showing BJP leader Nitesh Rane taunting Maharashtra min Aaditya Thackeray as he enters Vidhan Bhavan on December 23Shiv Sena's demand for Nitesh Rane's suspension from the Assembly led to brief adjournment of the session y'day(Video source unverified) pic.twitter.com/3qYfrd6Ujk
The "meow" catcalls had ignited a huge fight in Maharashtra with the ruling Shiv Sena demanding action against Mr Rane for his "inappropriate" conduct targeting Mr Thackeray. After hours of sparring in the state assembly, the BJP assured that Nitesh Rane would be "reprimanded".
Last week, Aaditya Thackeray was entering the Maharashtra assembly building when he was "cat-called" by BJP MLAs protesting outside. Nitesh Rane, who was participating in the protest, loudly "meowed" at the state Tourism Minister, drawing sniggers from other BJP leaders.
