Shiv Sena would build Savarkar's memorial in Nashik: Uddhav Thackeray

NASHIK: Shiv Sena president Udhhav Thackeray said here yesterday that if his party came to power in Maharashtra, it would build a national memorial to V D Savarkar, the revolutionary-politician and Hindutva ideologue, in the city.

He was speaking after inaugurating three-day literary meet dedicated to Savarkar, who was born in Nashik, and was a prolific writer himself.

Thackeray said his late father, Bal Thackeray, took forward Savarkar's staunch Hindutva.
