Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut has reacted sharply to the Enforcement Directorate’s action. Regarding the attachment of his flat and plot by the ED, he said that even if I am shot or sent to jail, I will not sit silent. Sanjay Raut said that I am a disciple of Balasaheb Thackeray and cannot bow down. Sanjay Raut said, ‘What is the meaning of property after all. Am I Mehul Choksi, Nirav Modi or Vijay Mallya? I am not even Ambani or Adani. The house I live in is a small one. Alibaug, my native place, does not even have an acre of land. Whatever we have taken is buying from hard earned money which was taken in 2009.
Sanjay Raut described the action of ED as an act of revenge. “Whatever this is happening, it is being done by retaliation,” he said. I was already getting threats that if you do not cooperate in toppling the Maharashtra government, then action will be taken by the central agencies. The Rajya Sabha MP of Shiv Sena, seen in a very tough manner, said, ‘We are not going to be afraid, even if we shoot. Seize the property or send it to jail. Sanjay Raut is a disciple of Balasaheb Thackeray, will not sit silent and will keep revealing the pole of you people. Action is going on for two years, but I did not sit silent. Now the one who wants to jump, keep jumping, keep dancing. In the coming days, it will be known what is the truth.
