Mumbai: The state government has ordered a sitting investigation into a threat received by the Minister and Legislators after the threat of death received by Maharashtra Minister of Environment Aaditya Thackeray discussed in the State Assembly on Thursday.
The Interior Minister Dilip Walse Patil told the State Assembly that a man who lived in Bangalore named Jaisedh Rajput had been arrested in connection with the threat of death against Thackeray and had been brought to Mumbai.
He was in police custody for three days.
“Given the sentiment expressed in the Assembly, we will establish sitting to ask the threat of death received by leaders and to formulate policies regarding this matter,” said Patil.
Previously, Shiv Sena Mla Sunil Prabhu told the assembly that Thackeray had received the threat of death on Whatsapp of a man in Karnataka.
“Because personalities such as Dabholkar, Gauri Lankesh and Kalurgi are killed by people from Karnataka, who have a BJP government, we need to see if there is a conspiracy,” he said.
Others, including Nawab Malik from NCP and Sudhir Mungantiwar from BJP, also said that they had received threats.
Both Malik and Chhagan Bhujbal NCP demanded action against Hindutva clothes Sanatan Sanshtha.
“After the Sushant Singh Rajput case, there was an attempt to slander the MVA government.
I also received a threat and there was a twitter handle that he did propaganda against the government and received funds to RS 30 Lakh,” Alleged Malik.
He alleged that Sanstan Sanstha was behind the murder of Dabholkar, Gauri Lankesh and Kalurgi.
“Some ministers have received threats.
Probe is needed by IPS officers,” Malik said.
Bhujbal demands a ban on Sanstha.
“This is a very serious problem and strong actions must be taken.
In the past, the Government of Congress-NCP has requested a ban on Sanstha.
This organization was found in several countries.
If other countries make the same request, the center must intervene,” he said.
BJP leader Sudhir Mungantiwar added that if the legislator was threatened, it reflected it badly at the State House Department.
“I have received a threat and has the leader of Sena Millind Narvestar,” he said.
The opposition leader Devendra Fadnivis said that despite the threat to Aaditya Thackeray was a serious problem, the state government tried to politicize this problem.
“We condemn such threats.
Serious action must be taken against the organization behind the activity.
Investigate the organization, both behind Twitter propaganda, or Raza Academy.
I am happy to seek the cooperation of the Karnataka Government in this matter,” he said.
However, he showed that if MVA felt Sanstan Sansta was a dangerous organization, they did not do a little to act against it in two years they came to power.
“It’s not enough to ask the center for the center.
The government must provide conclusive evidence of it, which failed,” he said.
