Mumbai: Raj Thackeray, a seasoned practitioner
of calls to target immigrant workers in Mumbai, must be punished for his
latest hate speech, some parties in Maharashtra have demanded.
Yesterday, Mr Thackeray said three-wheelers with new permits will be set
on fire because he alleged that nearly 70 per cent of the
auto-rickshaws recently cleared to run on Mumbai's roads belong to
non-Maharashtrians.
"If any such auto with a new permit is seen plying on the road, those
sitting inside will be asked to come out and the auto will be set on
fire," he said in a speech on the 10th anniversary of his party being
founded.[. . .]
