Mumbai, Nov 17: Shiv Sena chief Bal Keshav Thackeray, Maharashtra's militant flagbearer of Hindu nationalism and regional chauvinism who did not hesitate to resort to mob tactics to have his will enforced, died here Saturday.
The leader's body will be kept at Shivaji Park to enable party activists and Mumbaikars to pay their last respects from 7 a.m. Sunday, party MP Sanjay Raut told reporters, even as he appealed to Shiv Sainiks to “maintain calm and remain peaceful”.
