Print Mumbai, 23 Aug 2010: Shiv Sena chief Balasaheb Thackeray on Sunday demanded removal of Union Law Minister Veerappa Moily to ensure impartial handling of the Maharashtra-Karnataka border dispute which is now in the Supreme Court.
"Moily is a Kannadiga...the Central Government has courts under pressure... How can one expect that Marathi people in border areas (of Karnataka) get justice from courts," Thackeray said in a statement late here tonight.
Someone with impeccable record should be appointed union law minister in order resolve the Maharashtra-Karnataka border row impartially, Thackeray said reiterating that Moily must be removed.
The Maharashtra-Karnataka boundary row came to limelight following the Central government’s affidavit in the Supreme Court in late June that the disputed areas could not be made part of Maharashtra merely because a majority of the population there speak Marathi.

| All these years Tarun Bharat and local MES leaders to earn their bread they spread hatreadness within us and always brought language bias. If language is the issue then why seperate Vidarbha is in demand? Tarun bharath halted porgress of Belgavi.We lost Univesity, high court bench so many industries due to agitating MES.Why all these gimmicks?We are in India.I am also proud of Marathi and Maharashtra.Join developement of Belgavi with positive attitude.Although TB told they don t oppose Vishwa kannada Sammelana, their most of news articles have put negative outlook.MES please stop this double standards and allow Belgavi to grow and prosper peacefully.Please Work to keep Remaining maharashtra united.Why you require places of Karnataka to make Samyukt Maharashtra? If you love Marathi and Maharashra that much just walk few km north, you wii be in Maharassthra.Do not drag Kannadigas to Maharashtra and creat new headache for innocent Belgavi niwasi.Shivaji never said Marathi Samrajya the Great King always said Hindvi Samrajya. | |
