Chavan's ignorant politics responsible for Pune blast: Uddhav Thackeray

The Shiv Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray held chief minister Ashok Chavan's 'ignorant politics' responsible for Pune blast, which killed nine people and left 56 injured.

"It is the sin of Chavan that killed nine innocents in the terror attack," Uddhav said at Sena mouthpiece Saamana today.

The security at sensitive parts was diverted to ensure release of Shah Rukh Khan's My Name Is Khan, Uddhav said. The government even could have called the army for protection, he added.

"The bomb blast could have been avoided if the same security was given at appropriate places," the Sena leader said.
