The Sena (UBT) chief said when he arrived in Wani by helicopter, several election officials inspected his bag.

Meanwhile he asked his party workers and voters to also check the pockets and identity cards of the officials who check them. thackeray said he was not miffed with the election authorities but added, "You are following your responsibility, and I will perform my responsibility." "The way you inspected my bag, did you inspect the bags of Modi and Shah?" he asked. The police and the election commission should not intervene as voters also have the right to check their bags (senior leaders of the ruling parties) when they come for campaigning, he added.
