After Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray heavily criticised Narendra Modi during his Gudi Padwa rally, MNS party workers pulled down Gujarati signboards at some commercial establishments in Vasai. In total, they pulled down over 20 signboards on the Mumbai-Ahmedabad highway, confirmed Kundan Sankhe, Thane (rural) MNS president.

If shopkeepers agree to put up the board in Marathi while applying for trade license, then it is a crime to put up a board in the Gujarati language. We have only pulled down the boards and not shops. We will continue our agitation for the Marathi language,” Kundan Sankhe, Thane (rural) MNS president.
