Sena MP compares proBJP Jain leader to Zakir Naik

MUMBAI: The Shiv Sena filed a complaint with the state election commission against a Jain leader who urged the community to vote for the BJP in the Mira-Bhayander elections to create a “meat-free society”. Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut, MP from the Rajya Sabha, equated the Jain monk, Naypadmasagarji Maharaj, to televangelist Zakir Naik, calling “poison for society at large”. Raut said, “The BJP won the MiraBhayandar election because of money and muni (monk).”
