Continuing its agitation for the cause of sons of soil,Raj Thackeray led Maharashtra Navnirman Sena has written a letter to State Bank of India (SBI) for considering locals for the new jobs.

“We have written a letter to SBI administration demanding consideration of locals on priority for 1100 clerical posts announced by them,” said MNS general secretary Shirish Parkar.

SBI is holding an entrance exam in Mumbai on Sunday and the administration has assured the MNS to speak to the authorities in Delhi regarding their demand.

“About 1.5 lakh applications were received by SBI and 70 per cent are outsiders. The posts are local and Marathi people should get priority for that,” Parkar said.

MNS had also raised the issue during railway board exams last year,which took violent turn as the party activists attacked 17 railway board examination centres in suburban Mumbai,and chased away candidates from north India.
