Farmer’s funeral pyre will destroy you, Sena warns BJP

TIL Desk/National/Mumbai/ Taking a grim view of the suicide by an octogenarian peasant demanding fair compensation for his acquired lands, the Shiv Sena on Tuesday warned its ruling ally BJP that Dharma Patil’s funeral pyre will destroy the BJP government.

Condemning the incident which happened in the state government Mantralaya where the Dhule-based 84-year-old Patil consumed poison on January 22 and succumbed during treatment six days later, the Shiv Sena launched a vitriolic attack on the BJP.”This is not governance.

The Chief Minister (Devendra Fadnavis) should run the state, not the BJP. Your administration stands on the dead body of Dharma Patil. His funeral pyre will reduce your chair to ashes,” the Sena said in editorials in party organs ‘Saamana’ and ‘Dopahar Ka Saamana’.

It pointed out how Fadnavis was delivering speeches in Davos at the World Economic Forum summit when farmers in the state were committing suicide.”What’s the use of foreign investment in such circumstances? Merely making speeches will not solve the questions of food, shelter and clothing. Patil has been ‘murdered’,” the Sena said. It added that though Patil was no more, his death had sparked a new flame in the minds of the farmers suffering injustice.
