Speaking out on the #MeToo Movement, Shiv Sena President Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday urged women to go ahead and "slap men" who harassed them.
Thackeray appealed women to approach Shiv Sena if they have any complaints, and said the party would ensure "immediate justice" for them.
The Sena chief also questioned the government's commitment towards ensuring justice for women, and said the allegations should be probed properly.
"It should be inquired. This is serious. We have put forth our side earlier as well. But let me also tell my sisters and mothers, five or ten years after the incident, from whom do you expect justice now? Do you think this government will give you justice? Remember Nirbhaya or Kopardi?" he said.
"Go ahead and slap those men. We are with you. Come to any of my shakhas. We will stand by you," he added.
