Raj Thackeray Removes Modi-Adani Documentary After Mumbai Police RequestPreviousNext

MNS chief Raj Thackeray deleted a viral documentary linking Prime Minister Narendra Modi and industrialist Gautam Adani from his social media accounts following a request from the Mumbai Police Commissioner. The documentary, produced by Sabeer Bhatia, alleged a close relationship influencing India's industrial landscape and garnered over 4.8 million views on X. Thackeray emphasized his opposition targets systemic monopolies rather than individuals and vowed to continue his campaign despite complying with the police request out of respect.
