Raj Thackeray Silences MNS Leaders on Marathi Language Controversy

Amidst the escalating debate surrounding the Marathi language, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray has taken decisive action, instructing his party leaders to maintain silence on the matter.

Thackeray Implements Strict Communications Ban

The directive prohibits MNS leaders from engaging with the media or posting on social media platforms regarding the Marathi language controversy without obtaining express permission from Thackeray himself. This move aims to control the narrative and prevent any further escalation of the already sensitive situation.

Gag Order Highlights Party Discipline

This gag order underscores the importance of party discipline within the MNS and demonstrates Thackeray’s firm grip on the organization. The implications of this decision remain to be seen, but it clearly signals a strategic approach to handling the ongoing language dispute.
