Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray on Sunday attributed the attack on Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy by MNS workers to frustration stemming from the absence of condemnation following a similar incident involving himself.

On Saturday, a handful of MNS workers hurled tomatoes and cow dung at Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray’s convoy in Thane, a day after some people in Beed district threw betel nuts (supari) at Raj Thackeray’s motorcade. The authorities have since detained over 40 MNS workers in connection with the attack on Uddhav’s convoy.
