Prashant Kishor SLAMS Raj Thackeray For Anti-Bihari Remark, Dares BJP-Congress Over Language Silence [Video]

Prashant Kishor SLAMS Raj Thackeray For Anti-Bihari Remark, Dares BJP-Congress Over Language Silence

Prashant Kishor has launched a blistering attack on Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray after his controversial “slap those who don’t speak Marathi” remark. Calling Thackeray a “lumpen element” hiding in Mumbai while targeting poor migrants, Kishor slammed both BJP and Congress for their deafening silence on the issue. In a scathing rebuttal, Kishor reminded Thackeray that Maharashtra doesn’t belong to his father and warned against making heroes out of violent politics. Kishor also exposed the political convenience behind this rhetoric — just ahead of the BMC elections. He demanded Tejashwi Yadav and opposition leaders break their silence and stand up for Hindi-speaking migrants. The issue is rapidly snowb@lling into a national flashpoint on regional identity, governance, and electoral desperation. #PrashantKishor #RajThackeray #LanguageRow #BMC2025 #MNS #HindiSpeakers #BJP #Congress #TejashwiYadav #ShivSena #UddhavThackeray #MarathiPolitics #BihariMigrants #MumbaiPolitics #RegionalismDebate #PoliticalViolence #Elections2025 #MigrantRights #IndiaPolitics #PKSlamsRaj Also Read Bihar Assembly Elections 2025: Prashant Kishor Promises Rs 2000 To Every Senior Citizen :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/bihar-assembly-elections-2025-prashant-kishor-promises-rs-2000-to-every-senior-citizen-7787469.html?ref=DMDesc Spend One Night In Village: Prashant Kishor Challenges Rahul Gandhi's Commitment To Bihar :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/spend-one-night-in-village-prashant-kishor-challenges-rahul-gandhis-commitment-to-bihar-011-7783959.html?ref=DMDesc Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj Party Gets 'School Bag' Election Symbol :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/prashant-kishors-jan-suraaj-party-gets-school-bag-symbol-election-symbol-7783181.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~GR.124~
