Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Friday slammed the central government over security issues post the Pahalgam terror attack. Shiv Sena (UBT) leader questioned the appropriateness of India playing cricket and hockey matches against Pakistan in the upcoming Asia Cup tournaments, amid the hostilities between the two countries in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack.

As reported by PTI, Aaditya Thackeray, while talking to the media on the premises of the Vidhan Bhavan, the state legislature complex, stated that several questions concerning national security were still unanswered.

Thackeray, while pointing out the security concerns, said, "Is it right to play matches with Pakistan when the country is sponsoring terror against us? Should the Indian team play Asia Cup cricket and hockey tournaments against Pakistan? We want a clear answer from the BJP and the Union government."
