New Delhi: Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader, Raj Thackeray has been keeping a low profile for some time now, but no longer. He is back shoving Marathi down the throats of hapless shopkeepers.
He has written to Mumbai shopowners asking them to put up Marathi signboards by August 28 or else deal with his party.
"Shops that do not carry Marathi signboards have been given time till August 28 to change the signboards. After that, shops that do not have Marathi boards will face attacks from MNS," he said.
Raj is also demanding that officials stop issuing domicile certificates and driving licences to "outsiders" -- that is, North Indians.
In February this year, MNS supporters had attacked north Indian taxi-drivers in Mumbai. About 40 taxis were damaged and taxi-drivers were assaulted and the office of the taxi-men's union and a garment shop were attacked.
