The Maharashtra government is under political pressure to act against Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray. Police already have a non-bailable arrest warrant against Raj, but are yet to take any action against him. The MNS chief, too, dared the Maharashtra government to arrest him after his party activists on Sunday attacked young North Indians students appearing for a railway recruitment examination.

The issue was raised in Parliament on Monday with MPs asking why the Maharashtra government is not taking any action even as MNS supporters go on a rampage.
