In the Saamana editorial heavy on references from the epic Mahabharata, the Sena says the BJP "should not become an Abhimanyu".
Maharashtra is "at the centre of the Kurukshetra battle", fighting on multiple fronts like Covid and corruption investigations, the ruling Shiv Sena has said in a stinging editorial that takes digs at the BJP, its former partner. In the Saamana editorial heavy on references from the epic Mahabharata, the Sena says the BJP "should not become an Abhimanyu". Abhimanyu was a character known for plunging into a difficult fight without an exit strategy. "Maharashtra is battling the Covid pandemic but now it also has to battle autocratic action by the Enforcement Directorate and the CBI. Mamata Banerjee has fought and won against such autocrats. Maharashtra needs to adopt the same path to fight them," the Sena says. "The Chief Minister (Uddhav Thackeray) must have said all this to Prime Minister Narendra Modi."
The prime minister said the Maharashtra election also shows that only one Constitution will work in India and that was given to the people of the country by B R Ambedkar.
The Prime Minister said the Congress' outsized interest in its own welfare is a "threat to democracy".
