Nitesh Rane tweeted a photo shared by Yuva Sena leader Varun Sardesai stating that the core committee members of the Shiv Sena’s youth wing (Yuva Sena) had met the chief minister. The Kankavli MLA tweeted —

So it was indeed a state sponsored violence just like West Bengal !
As a head of the state the CM shud be ensuring safety but he is actually felicitating hooligans!

Activists of Yuva Sena and BJP clashed with each other near Rane’s residence on Juhu Tara Road in Santacruz (West) on Tuesday in the wake of his “would have slapped” comments against chief minister Thackeray. Stones were pelted from both sides, following which police used cane-charge to disperse the agitators, an official had said.
