Senior BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Wednesday described Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray's speech in Aurangabad as full of "taunts" and lacking any substance.

Thackeray had said that because of the BJP, the country had to face an embarrassing situation at the international level as it was "brought to its knees and was forced to apologise" by the Arab countries over the controversial remarks made by the party spokesperson on Prophet Mohammad. “It is contradictory to see people who give lectures to others but did not follow it when it comes to decision making. There has been no reduction in fuel prices in Maharashtra,” Fadnavis tweeted without taking Thackeray's name.
