Neither Hindi nor Marathi, Uddhav & Raj just love family: BJP
In a recent development, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and MNS president Raj Thackeray came together to organize a joint rally to celebrate the Maharashtra government’s decision to rollback the three-language policy. The event was seen as a significant step towards unity among regional parties, but it didn’t go unnoticed by the BJP, who felt compelled to react to the situation.
Gaurav Vallabh, a prominent BJP leader, took to social media to express his thoughts on the matter. In a series of tweets, Vallabh stated that the joint rally between Uddhav and Raj was a result of “political compulsion” and not a genuine display of unity. He further took a swipe at the two leaders, saying that they didn’t love either Hindi or Marathi, but instead, they only loved their family.
This statement has sparked a heated debate, with many interpreting it as a personal attack on Uddhav and Raj. However, Vallabh’s intentions may have been to highlight the hypocrisy of the two leaders, who have often been criticized for their divisive rhetoric and anti-India stance.
For those who may be unaware, the three-language policy was introduced by the Maharashtra government in 2020, which aimed to promote the use of Marathi, Hindi, and English in educational institutions. The policy was seen as a step towards promoting linguistic diversity and inclusivity in the state. However, it was met with strong opposition from various quarters, including the Shiv Sena and the MNS.
The joint rally between Uddhav and Raj was seen as a victory for the two leaders, who have often been at odds with each other. However, Vallabh’s statement has raised questions about the true intentions behind the rally. Is it really a display of unity, or is it just a strategic move to gain political mileage?
Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray have been known for their strong regional sentiments and anti-India rhetoric. Uddhav, in particular, has been accused of promoting a brand of politics that is divisive and anti-Hindi. He has often been critical of the BJP-led central government’s policies, which he sees as being anti-Maharashtra and anti-Hindi.
Raj Thackeray, on the other hand, has been known for his aggressive stance against Hindi and North Indians. He has often been accused of promoting a brand of politics that is xenophobic and anti-India. His party, the MNS, has been criticized for its aggressive behavior towards North Indians, who have been subjected to violence and harassment in various parts of the state.
In light of this, Vallabh’s statement about Uddhav and Raj loving their family but not Hindi or Marathi may not be entirely unfounded. While both leaders have been vocal about their love for their respective languages, their actions and rhetoric have often been criticized as being divisive and anti-India.
It is also worth noting that the joint rally between Uddhav and Raj was not the first time that the two leaders have come together. They have often collaborated on various issues, including the anti-India agitation in 2013, when they jointly led a rally against the Centre’s decision to allow FDI in retail.
The BJP has long been critical of Uddhav and Raj’s brand of politics, which they see as being divisive and anti-India. Vallabh’s statement is just the latest in a series of attacks by the BJP on the two leaders, who have often been accused of promoting a brand of politics that is anti-Hindi and anti-India.
In conclusion, the joint rally between Uddhav and Raj may have been seen as a display of unity, but Vallabh’s statement has raised questions about the true intentions behind the rally. While the two leaders have often been critical of each other, they have also collaborated on various issues, including the anti-India agitation in 2013.
As the political landscape in Maharashtra continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how Uddhav and Raj’s relationship unfolds. Will they continue to collaborate on various issues, or will their differences tear them apart? Only time will tell.
