Uddhav takes dig at Sharad Pawar

Mumbai : Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray on Saturday took a veiled dig at rival Sharad Pawar, a day after the NCP chief called off his voluntary visit to the office of the Enforcement Directorate (ED) here in connection with the state Cooperative Bank (MSCB) scam case.

Addressing Sena workers, Uddhav recalled the arrest of his father and Sena founder the late Bal Thackeray in the year 2000 by the then Congress- NCP government, and said Maharashtra doesn't appreciate politics of "revenge and vengeance".

He said nobody had visited the Sena chief requesting him to not go to court so as to prevent any law and order situation.
