Uddhav Thackeray addressed a public rally in Ratnagiri in Konkan region where he appealed to the Shiv Sainiks to fight against the dictatorship

Speaking at the public rally, Thackeray on Monday asked why no probe agency swung into action after BJP MLA Ganpat Gaikad claimed that Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde owes him crores of rupees.

Thackeray said he does not support the action of Ganpat Gaikwad, who is accused of firing at a Shiv Sena leader inside a police station in Thane district, but the BJP MLA's claims cannot be easily ignored, he said.

'If it is true, then why no probe agency has swung into action,' Thackeray questioned.

"If the Union government can send probe (agency) officials to the houses of (former Jharkhand CM) Soren and (Delhi CM) Kejriwal, why no similar urge is shown and Shinde's house is not raided?" he asked.

Thackeray further said he wanted to ask the ruling BJP's supporters that if their own MLA's issues were not being addressed by the government, why were they backing their party.
