Shiv Sen spokesperson Neelam Gorhe on Tuesday condemned the four-day meat ban in Mumbai imposed by the Maharashtra Government.
"The Mayor of BJP-ruled Mira Bhayander Municipal Corporation (in Maharashtra's Thane District) is trying to use a section of society for political reasons," Gorhe claimed.
Gorhe told ANI, "The issue of 'meat ban' was in discussion for a long time and imposing this ban on everyone is not a fair decision."
The Mira Bhayander Mahanagar Palika mayor needs some training, she cannot rule as a dictator," she added.
The Maharashtra Government has banned meat in Mumbai for four days, in view of the Jain festival of Paryushan.
