Maharashtra Home Minister Dilip Walse Patil on Thursday appealed to political parties against staging protests or disturbing peace for political gains over the ‘hijab’ row in neighbouring Karnataka. Addressing media persons here, the minister said it was “not appropriate” to stage protests in Maharashtra over any issue that has roots in some other state.
“It is not in the interest of Maharashtra and its people to stage protests or disturb peace over something that has occurred in some other state,” he said.
“It is not appropriate to do these things for political gains. I appeal to all political parties and organisations to cooperate in this regard and ensure peace,” Patil said. The Maharashtra Police are keeping a close tab and taking steps to ensure the situation remains normal in the state, he said. The minister said education has to be the sole priority when one goes to a school or college.
