Shivaji Statue Collapse: Uddhav Thackeray Slams PM Modi’s Apology: "Smacked of Arrogance"

Tearing into the Eknath Shinde government in Maharashtra over the collapse of a 35-foot statue of Chhatrapati Shivaji, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray today claimed that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's apology on the statue collapse smacked of arrogance and added that the people of the state had rejected it.

Addressing a gathering during the Maha Vikas Aghadi's "jode maro" protest -- meaning hit with footwear -- over the collapse of the Maratha ruler's statue, Mr Thackeray drew a parallel between the statue's collapse and water dripping into the Ram Temple in Ayodhya and the new Parliament complex.
