Taking on CM

Amruta Fadnavis has posted a video which shows several women raising slogans against her and hitting her photograph with a footwear. Some persons in clip can also be seen holding a saffron flag in ir hands, hinting at ir association with ruling Shiv Sena. In a fresh attack on CM Thackeray, Amruta Fadnavis tweeted while tagging official twitter handle of Sena chief: "You don't lead people by hitting people over head, that's assault - t leadership @OfficeofUT." She stated, "Dikhao chappal, feko paththar, ye to shauk hain purana aapaka, hum to wo shaks hai ki dhoop me bhi nikhar aayenge!" (Which can be loosely translated as 'she would endure all odds and defy intimidation'). Amruta Fadnavis had invited wrath of Sena for her December 22 tweet stating that "one cant be a 'Thackeray' just by putting Thackeray after his name". Hitting back, Sena deputy leader Priyanka Chaturvedi on Monday said Thackeray was living up to his name, but Amruta Fadnavis, a professional banker, was missing point. A Sena corporator had equated Amruta Fadnavis with Anandibai, infamous in Maharashtra's history for plotting death of her 17-year-old nephew Peshwa Narayanrao. Her husband Raghunathrao was next in line for throne at time of Narayanrao's death.
