Amid farmers' agitation in the state, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) president Raj Thackeray today alleged that BJP came to power by making false promises, and is now reneging on them.
"BJP had given false promises to farmers. That is how they came to power in Maharashtra, and now they have forgotten the farmers," he said.
"I support the cause of farmers....I am not opposing Anna Hazare or anyone who tries to lead this agitation, all I want is a solution to farmers' problems," Raj said.

"BJP has a committee to come up with interesting names for government schemes, but the state coffers are empty. There are no funds for implementing these schemes. So I think the BJP has cheated the farmers," he said.
Both "jawans" (soldiers) and "kisan" (farmers) are unhappy in the country, the MNS chief said.
"I find it incredible that we are playing against Pakistan in the ICC Champions Trophy even when its Army keeps shooting at our jawans," he said.
