Thu Mar 20 07:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Thackeray Denies Involvement in Salian Case Amidst Renewed Controversy
**Mumbai, India** – Aditya Thackeray, a prominent political figure in Maharashtra, has vehemently denied any involvement in the ongoing controversy surrounding the death of Disha Salian, the former manager of late actor Sushant Singh Rajput. Salian’s death in 2020 was initially ruled a suicide, but allegations of murder have persisted, reigniting debate after her father filed a petition in the Bombay High Court claiming foul play.
Thackeray, addressing the media outside the state assembly, accused his detractors of a five-year-long smear campaign. He stated, “For the past five years, there have been continuous attempts to defame me. Whatever needs to be said, we will say it in court.” He emphasized his commitment to addressing the issue legally and dismissed allegations linking him to the case.
The renewed controversy saw heated exchanges in the state assembly, with the ruling party and opposition clashing over the issue. Thackeray also criticized the ruling BJP government, questioning their actions regarding other issues, and challenged them to take action against their own members who have made unsubstantiated claims. He stated that the BJP had failed to deliver on their election promises and that the opposition had exposed their shortcomings. He even went as far as to dare the BJP to adjourn the assembly session if they choose to, adding that the people of Maharashtra deserve to know the government’s plans and policies.
