Issuing a media release, Thackeray (85) said, "I am getting old, but Anna you are younger to me. These childish acts don't suit you. Don't unnecessarily pick up a fight with us."
"I did not speak anything against you. I just said corruption will not end by fasts," Thackeray said referring to his Thursday's statement wherein he had criticised Hazare's anti-corruption campaign, which he had earlier supported through several statements and editorials in the party mouthpiece Saamna.
He said "somebody has filled Anna's ears". In a word of caution to Hazare, Thackeray said, "I can answer back to Anna comments because I am not a Gandhian."
Addressing his party's annual Dusshehra rally at Shivaji Park on Thursday Thackeray had said: "While he was on hunger strike, over 35,000 people were being fed twice daily. Even visitors and guests were lavishly hosted at the venue. Anna, corruption cannot be stopped like this."
