Three days after the Enforcement Directorate provisionally attached the immovable properties belonging to Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's brother-in-law Shridhar Madhav Patankar, Thackeray on Friday, 25 March, slammed the BJP for allegedly influencing the ED to carry out the raid.
Speaking in the Assembly, Thackeray said, "If you want to come to power, then come to power. But don't do all these vicious things to come to power. Don't harass ours or anyone else's family members. We never bothered your family members."
