Maharashtra: Sanjay Raut will destroy Sena, says Narayan Rane after Sena MP attacks his sons

MUMBAI: Shiv Sena leader MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday came down heavily on Union minister Narayan Rane and blamed his two sons, MLA Nitesh and former MP Nilesh, for damaging Rane’s political career by using ‘uncultured language’ for Sena leaders and others. Rane, however, refuted the allegations made against his sons, and hit back at Raut, saying he is leading the party to its decline.
Rane also threatened to write a series through ‘Prahar’, the Marathi daily he owns, if Sena does not stop making personal attacks on him.
Raut, executive editor of Sena’s mouthpiece ‘Saamna’, in his weekly column ‘RokhThok’ stated that Rane came to Maharashtra for ‘Jan Ashirwad Yatra’, but made it fools ‘Jatra’ (fair). “BJP is in opposition in Maharashtra and this inferiority complex compels them to hurl dirty verbal attacks on the state government. However, now they are tired of it and the work has been allotted to an ‘outsider’ Rane.”
