Flaying Congress president Sonia Gandhi for "shedding tears" for those killed in the Batla House encounter, Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray on Monday said Law Minister Salman Khurshid may even announce a memorial for them.

In an editorial in Sena mouthpiece Saamana, Thackeray riled Khurshid over his remarks that UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi had cried after seeing the images of Batla House encounter.

"Did she laugh when she looked at the photos of the 26/11 martyrs like Tukaram Ombale, Karkare and Salaskar," he asked.

"The two terrorists killed in Batla House were termed martyrs by Congress," he said.

Khurshid can even announce constructing a memorial at India Gate for the two terrorists killed in Batla house, he said.

"Khurshid will also announce a memorial for terrorist Afzal Guru," Thackeray added.
