Mumbai: Politics during festivals is childish behaviour, says Aditya Thackeray

“I have seen the video of the incident and it was a really dirty and ugly act…it is outrageous…It is not at all right to behave like this. Be it officer bearer or party worker of any political party. Strict action should be taken and that action should be visible to the people. Raising hands on someone, that too on a woman, is unacceptable,” Thackeray said.

Thackeray visited several Ganesh Pandals in Mumbai and hit out at the politics being played out in the state. “Whoever is doing politics right now, (it) is childish behaviour. People can see who is doing what politics. People are tired of politics. Currently, politics is going on everywhere. No one likes politics going on everywhere and every time. I think it’s time that people should be allowed to celebrate the festive season with joy.  It’s after two years that people are able to celebrate it. So, we should just take blessings of Ganpati Bappa as everything is happening because of Ganpati Bappa’s blessings,” Thackeray said.
