Uddhav Thackeray said that the then Shiv Sena chief Bala Saheb had taken the responsibility of breaking the Babri Masjid. Now the BJP government at the Center should also decide on the construction of Ram temple. Shiv Sena chief Bala Saheb further said in his statement that "seeing the interest of the country, we should stay together because it has become necessary to teach Pakistan a lesson". According to political experts, this statement of the old BJP ally chief before the Maharashtra assembly elections is being seen as putting pressure on the ruling Modi government at the centre.
