| Mumbai: Just when Maharashtra CM Ashok Chavan took a u-turn from his earlier comment on compulsory knowledge of Marathi for the taxi-drivers, MNS supremo Raj Thackeray has come down with heavy criticism.
Asserting that Chief Minister cannot withdraw from his comment, Thackeray added that all 450 licenses should be given only to Marathis. Reacting strongly to Chavan's later comment that cab drivers should know any local language including Hindi and Gujarati, Thackeray remarked, "Mumbai is not a dharamsala for North Indians."
Thackeray threatened agitation by MNS party if the government does not give permits to Marathi people for the 4000 new taxis adding that his party will not allow these taxis to move on the road. |
