“Till now MNS has protested at 16 places…on Mumbai Goa Highway, Nashik Mumbai Highway, pune etc …wherever required we will get aggressive too…vandalism and aggression is not needed at every place…my only concern is while protesting common citizen do not face any difficulty….,” he said.
Earlier on Wednesday, in a message on X (formerly known as Twitter), Raj Thackeray appealed to people to plant trees on potholes so that the administration pays attention to the issue.
“My appeal to my Maharashtra soldiers is that, be it any highway or internal city roads in this state, there are potholes everywhere. Then plant trees in these potholes, at least because of this the administration will pay attention to the potholes on the road,” read Raj Thackeray’s post in Marathi.
