Maharashtra’s prominent Dalit leader and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ally Athawale said that Uddhav Thackeray talks about Hindutva, but is not participating in the ongoing Kumbh Mela in Prayagraj.
People’s feelings should have been taken care of- Athwale
He told the news agency PTI that Thackeray and Gandhi family had insulted Hindutva by not participating in Mahakumbh. Despite being a Hindu, not going to Mahakumbh is an insult to Hindus. Now Hindus should boycott them. He further said that keeping in mind the feelings of the people, the Mahakumbh should have been participated.
