Comparing Shiv Sena with the Nazis

Shiv Sena spokesman Sanjay Raut justified the police action against the two girls from Palghar for their Facebook comments against the shutdown for Shiv Sena Chief Bal Thackeray's funeral.

"Balasaheb's death has been a shock to the entire nation. Sainiks showed tremendous restrain in controlling their emotions," Raut told PTI.

"The bandh was spontaneous and not forced by the Sena. It was because of the love and respect for Balasaheb. Shiv Sainiks were naturally upset at the misuse of the social media to post provocative comments," he added.

Inquiry report expected on Wednesday: Maha govt

Meanwhile, the Maharashtra government said the report of inquiry, ordered into the arrest of two girls is expected on Wednesday.

"The inquiry has begun and will look into whether the arrests were warranted and whether the sections applied were correct. Similarly, the probe will also investigate the incident of vandalism in the aftermath," Home Minister R R Patil said.

The government instituted an inquiry headed by the Konkan range inspector general into the matter on Monday and sought a report immediately.

Patil said it would be wrong on his part to comment on the police action when the inquiry was on.

The report of the IG level inquiry in the case is expected on Wednesday, he said.

"The government has taken the incident very seriously," he said, adding more clarity was required in the IT Act to prevent misuse.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan [ Images ] told reporters, "Let the report come, then action would be taken."

Maharashtra was never made what it is by Maharashtrians.

Shivaji may have played a part during the fight against the Mughals but thereafter, it was developed by the British because it had good porting facilities on the Western coast which was nearer to England.

The business in Maharashtra was developed by the Gujaratis, Marwaris and Parsis. By speaking against people of other regions selectively The two imbeciles, Bal and Raj have won the hearts of the Mararthis but it has driven business and other investments out of Maharashtra.

Gujarat has been the net gainer.

Mahaashtrians can afford to be parochial for they have never gone our of Maharashtra as they never required to go out as the rest of India supplied them good opportunities in Maharashtra, because of its location.

I think the time has come for the rest of India to let them know that we run India and not the other way round.

That is if the Congress and BJP have the guts.
