Is Chavan Maha CM or SRK's bodyguard, asks Thackeray

In an editorial in party mouth-piece Saamana

PTI | February 13, 2010



Continuing his tirade against Ashok Chavan, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray today asked whether the Congress leader was the chief minister of Maharashtra or bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan's bodyguard.

"Is Chavan the chief minister of Maharashtra or actor Shah Rukh Khan's bodyguard? If it is the latter, then he should adorn the uniform of a security guard and stand outside Khan's 'Mannat' bungalow here, saluting the passers-by," Thackeray said in an editorial in Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana'.

"What different work has Chavan done for the last seven-eight days," Thackeray asked and flayed Chavan for "siding with Pak-lover Khan."

The entire police force has been used as Khan's "slave and domestic help", Thackeray said, referring to the police action against Shiv Sainiks during the agitation against SRK-starrer 'My Name Is Khan'.
