The Sena has essentially expressed its support for the External Affairs Minister in the controversy over allegedly helping former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi escape to Britain.
"The Congress party is behaving as if Swaraj has helped get bail to arrested fugitive gangster Dawood Ibrahim or Kasab. This controversy is being fuelled by using a section of the media. It is vital for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to order an investigation on who is so keen on maligning her clean reputation of 35-40 years," the Sena said in Saamana.
"Covering Swaraj in a mist of controversy and questions seems to be a huge political game being played to oust her from the BJP and from national politics," it has professed.
It warned that Prime Minister Narendra Modi also stands the risk of being targeted and harassed with such controversies. The piece noted that Home Minister Rajnath Singh's son and Nitin Gadkari have also been tactfully targeted.

"An Indian has been helped on humanitarian grounds. Why so much fuss over it? The Congress has become lifeless now and thus its flutter also does not mean much. But the question is who is trying to give flight to these fluttering wings," the Sena said.
"If somebody is attacking the External Affairs Ministry to weaken it and thereby trying to demoralise the Modi government, the person is ultimately causing harm to the country. This a very big political game that needs to be ended by PM Modi," it concludes.
