Taking potshots at the Shiv Sena and MNS union heavy industries minister Vilasrao Deshmukh has said protecting the interests of Maharashtrians should not mean doing injustice to outsiders.

While addressing an election rally here last night the former Maharashtra Chief Minister referred to the ongoing feud between Shiv Sena Executive President Uddhav Thackeray and MNS chief Raj Thackeray.

"The Thackeray brothers are fighting with each other on the issue of protecting the interests of Marathi 'manoos' who in fact is feeling suffocated by these swipes at each other," Deshmukh said.

Attacking the saffron alliance, Deshmukh said BJP was no more a cohesive political party and the Shiv Sena-BJP combine had no capability to offer a good government as given by Congress-NCP front during the last ten years.
