A day after MNS chief Raj Thackeray demanded postponement of the forthcoming Maharashtra Assembly elections in view of the flood situation in the state, Shiv Sena president Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday wondered how could people think of polls at such a "critical" time.
Raj Thackeray on Saturday sought the Election Commission's intervention to postpone the state Assembly polls, due in September-October, saying it would take time to restore normalcy in the flood-hit districts.
When asked about the MNS chief's comments, Uddhav Thackeray told reporters here, "I don't understand how can one think of elections in such a critical situation."
When asked to comment on these issues, Uddhav Thackeray said, "I am not going into any controversy right now as the focus is on providing support to the flood-hit people."
