BJP MP Nishikant Dubey hit out at MNS chief Raj Thackeray over incidents of violence against people who do not speak Marathi in Maharashtra. He shared a WikiLeaks document from 2007 about the incident of violence against Bihari students in Maharashtra, saying, "Thuggery is his sole purpose." "If Raj Thackeray doesn't get public support, he puts goons forward," he added.
