Shiv Sena against cricket ties
MUMBAI, June 6: Indian Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray, a staunch critic of the BJP-led NDA government’s soft stance vis-a-vis Pakistan, Friday strongly opposed resuming cricketing ties with the neighbouring country.
“I am against India playing cricket matches with Pakistan... the matches should not be played”, Thackeray insisted while talking to reporters here.
“When hundreds of Hindus are being killed in (Indian held) Jammu and Kashmir how can you play cricket with them?,” Thackeray claimed. —PPI
