Remove loudspeakers from mosques: Raj Thackeray tells Maharashtra govt
Mumbai/IBNS: Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray on Saturday asked the state government to remove the loudspeakers from mosques.
He has warned of "putting loudspeakers in front of the mosques and play Hanuman Chalisa".
Addressing the party workers, Thackeray said, "I am not against prayers, you can pray at your home, but the government should take a decision on removing mosque loudspeakers. I am warning now... Remove loudspeakers or else will put loudspeakers in front of the mosque and play Hanuman Chalisa."
The MNS chief demanded that the government revoke the pensions given to the MPs and MLAs.
"The MLA and MP pensions should be stopped. If you want to give homes, then give to the poor people who live in the slums. Why provide the MLAs houses? If you have to provide homes, then take their farmhouses away and then give them houses," he said.
Thackeray appealed to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to raid the mosques in the Muslim areas in Mumbai and said that the people living there are "Pakistani supporters".
"I appeal to PM Modi to raid the Madarasas at the Muslim shanties. Pakistani supporters are residing in these shanties. Mumbai Police knows what's happening there...Our MLAs using them for vote-bank, such people don't even have Aadhar Card, but the MLAs get them made," he said.
