Uddhav Thackeray attacks BJP over misuse of probe agencies for targetting Opposition

Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Tuesday attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his comments on a
“Rs 70,000 crore scam” by the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP).

This comes a day after a Pune Trust selected PM Modi for Tilak National Award and sent invite to Sharad Pawar for the August 1 function as chief guest.

Clobbering the BJP-led Centre over the alleged misuse of probe agencies to target Opposition parties, Thackeray said, “Time is cruel. When it turns against them, it will be difficult for them.”

Noticeable among the invitees included rebel NCP leader Ajit Pawar, who joined the Shiv Sena-BJP government in Maharashtra as deputy chief minister on July 2 along with eight MLAs of his camp sworn in as ministers.

In the midst of addressing
booth workers of the BJP in Bhopal PM Modi had pointed there were allegations of scams of nearly Rs 70,000 crore against the NCP, including the Maharashtra Cooperative Bank scam, the irrigation scam and the illegal mining scam. This seems to have not gone down well Uddhav Thackeray.
