Not in the way that you would think, where people would leave the Shiv Sena of Bal and Uddhav Thackeray and join Raj’s Nav Nirman Movement, but another byproduct of the lack of protest by the Shiv Sena against the anti-North Indian movement of Raj. In fact, Uddhav almost seemed to be trying to coopt the movement, with statements that, while not explicitly threatening North Indians, saying the message with less violence. However, the talk of jobs for native Marathis first and the lack of any denunciation of Raj’s message sent a signal to the North Indians – the Shiv Sena essentially will not hesitate to adopt Raj’s message if it seems to be generating popular acclaim.
From time to time, you would get a reminder that the Shiv Sena existed outside Maharashtra, particularly when there would be a demonstration by the Delhi branch against some statement by other parties, or when a Valentine’s day celebration needed to be broken up violently. But now it seems that the leaders of these North Indian branches are finding the environment a bit hard to handle.

India, a country famous for its independence fight against the colonial powers of British forces for the long duration of 150 years and at last got its independence in 1947, first outrightly rejected the issue of recognition of State of Israel, which came into existence just after a year after India’s independence i.e. 1948. Indian premier of that time, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and its first President Dr. Rajendra Prasad with the father of Nation, Mahatma Gandhi unitedly rejected the move of Zionist Regime to create a new country of Israel on the lands of already existing country of Palestine.
The stand of India against the formation of Zionist state was firm till the year 1990 and the government of Congress in the Republic of India was the front runner in holding this banner of non-recognition. But the same government after the death of its leader Rajiv Gandhi when handled by then premier Mr. P. V. NarsimhaRao starts working for the platform the recognition of Zionist State and the embassy of Israel came into existence on the Indian soil in the year 1991. With this move, the congress government started working closely with Israel in many fields of defense, spying, launching satellite and many suspicious things like training individuals and police officials in-terms of riotings and implementing communal genocide as was the case with Gujrat riots.
In a stinging criticism of the Indian Government, the Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen has left the country, and accused them of being hand-in-glove with the Muslim fundamentalists who have harassed her. In a talk with reporters on her way out of India, she bemoaned the fact that the Indian Government did not support her, harassed her and kept her under surveillance:
“If I disclose my destination my security will be compromised. My face has now become recognisable and I could be target of religious fundamentalist”, Taslima said, adding that she will not hesitate to discuss what she said the traumatic experience she allegedly went through during various international seminars lined up in Europe in the next few months.
