Sanjay Raut: Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut on Friday, March 21, cornered the Central and Maharashtra governments in the Rajya Sabha over the ongoing controversy over Aurangzeb’s tomb. He said that after Manipur, Maharashtra is burning and riots are taking place in Nagpur. He accused the Home Ministry of turning the country into a police state in the last few years.
Participating in the discussion on the functioning of the Home Ministry in the Rajya Sabha, Raut accused the government that forces trying to destabilize the country are repeatedly taking the name of Aurangzeb, which also includes ministers of the Maharashtra government and people holding senior positions in the central government.
‘You dug up old graves to lay new corpses’
Uddhav faction leader Sanjay Raut further said, “You dug up old graves to lay new corpses and that too in the name of Aurangzeb. It is history that there was never a riot in Nagpur in three hundred years. Riots take place in a city like Nagpur and that too in the area of our Maharashtra Chief Minister. I want to say that if you want to break Aurangzeb’s grave, then you can do it, who is stopping you? You have a government in the Centre and Maharashtra. You go with a shovel and break it.”
People are discussing Aurangzeb in the House – Raut
He also said, ”We are discussing the work of the Home Ministry but I am seeing that many of our members discussed Aurangzeb. What times have come that people are discussing Aurangzeb in the House and I hold the Home Ministry responsible for this. It is the job of the Home Ministry to maintain unity and integrity in the country but I see that for the past few years this country has been turned into a police state. Their job is to weaken the opposition, break political parties.”
