Mumbai: Shiv Sena
chief Bal Thackeray Tuesday said he was not against Indian Muslims
but those from outside.
In the second part of his interview to party mouthpiece 'Saamna',
Thackeray emphatically said he had no complaints, grudge or enmity
with the Muslims of India.
His ire, he said, was directed only against those coming from
outside the country and creating problems here.
"I have no grudge or enmity against the Muslims who have been
living here since generations. My objection is to those who have
sneaked into the country from outside. They should be caught and
lynched or kicked out," he said.
Thackeray cited Muslims from Pakistan and Bangladesh in this
context.
"They come and incite our Muslims. In the Konkan region (of
coastal Maharashtra), the extremist elements who have sneaked in
from outside are influencing our Konkani Muslims and spoiling
them," he said.
Similarly, he said Muslims who help outsiders should also be
considered equally guilty.
