“In his speech, Uddhav Thackeray spoke of a issue that has been pressing one for the opposition ruled states. Be it, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, West Bengal, Tamil Nadu or Punjab, these states have constantly raised the issue. The issue is increasing disregard for federalism in the country. Uddhav Thackeray called for an honest discussion on Centre-State relations as the country marks the 75th anniversary of India’s Independence. He said that the Indian Constitution framed by Dr B.R. Ambedkar has laid down clear guidelines on the rights of the Centre and states, with autonomy to the latter, along with sovereign rights like the Centre. “In the current scenario, the question arises whether the Centre will allow the states to survive… In their thirst for power, they keep harassing the non-BJP-ruled states, try to topple their governments. The Constitution says if the Centre interferes in the state’s affairs, it would be unconstitutional,” CM Thackeray declared. What Thackeray said has been highlighted by several opposition CMs before.
