Raj to Uddhav: Take photographs of potholes, not animals

Taking potshots at estranged cousin and Shiv Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray's penchant for photography, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray on Monday said the former should concentrate on shooting the many potholes that dot the city.

"Instead of shooting animals in other states, it would be better if one (read Uddhav) photographs potholes here. Then they would realise the shoddy state of affairs, all their doing," said Thackeray.

The Mumbai civic body is controlled by the Sena-Bharatiya Janata Party combine.

This is not the first time that Raj has commented on Uddhav's passion for photography.

In May last year, Raj had acknowledged that Uddhav was a 'great photographer'.

"No questions about his photography skills. Uddhav is a great photographer," Raj had said, leading to speculation on whether he was indirectly trying to play down Uddhav's role as a politician by focusing only on his expertise as a lensman.

Raj Thackeray quit Shiv Sena on December 18, 2005 and three months later, announced the formation of his new party.
