Writing on X, Thackeray accused the minister of taking a holiday on the money of taxpayers
Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Sunday sought the cancellation of Maharashtra industries minister Uday Samant’s tour of the United Kingdom, Germany and Davos in Switzerland from October 3.
Writing on X, Thackeray accused the minister of taking a holiday on the money of taxpayers.
“Who are the participants in the so-called round table conference you will attend in London and Munich? When there’s absolutely nothing from WEF currently in Davos, Switzerland, what ‘inspection tour’ will you be carrying out? Is it to do with traffic management there? Are you the guardian minister of Davos?” Thackeray asked.
The Davos ‘inspection visit’ is a pure sham since the World Economic Forum meeting there is in January, Thackeray said, adding that Samant must cancel his “Swiss holiday on taxpayers’ money”.
If so much money is available with the state government, then it should provide relief to farmers or speak about the Old Pension Scheme (OPS), the Shiv Sena (UBT) leader said.

Ramdas Athawale said it doesn’t behove Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, to make “anti-reservation” statements.
Union minister Ramdas Athawale demanded on Tuesday to cancel the passport of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to stop him from “defaming” India during his foreign trips.
Addressing a press conference in Palghar, the MOS for Social Justice said it doesn’t behove Gandhi, the leader of the opposition in the Lok Sabha, to make “anti-reservation” statements.
“Rahul Gandhi visits foreign countries and defames India by making such statements. His passport should be cancelled to stop him from making such remarks,” Athawale said while responding to a query on certain remarks made by Gandhi during his recent visit to the US that kicked up a row.
The Dalit leader said Congress will cease to exist one day but reservations won’t.
Athawale, whose RPI (A) is part of NDA, further said allying with NCP leader Ajit Pawar is not detrimental to the prospects of the Mahayuti (grand alliance).
