(Read: Fighting corruption: Anna Hazare agrees to visit Pakistan)
Shiv Sena spokesperson Sanjay Raut said that "Anna should have told the delegation that they should tell Pakistan to stop terrorism."
HT quoted Raut saying “Shiv Sena is of the opinion that no one should have any relations with Pakistan.”
A Pakistani delegation, comprising of former Supreme Court judge Justice Nasir Aslam Zahid and eminent peace activist Karamat Ali invited Hazare to visit Pakistan.
Anna Hazare said he would visit Pakistan if his “visit is going to help the anti-corruption movement there.”

@Muneeb Tahir:
In a way you make sense. India's Democratic system is so strong that it can actually benefit by the mass,non-violent protests led by people like Anna.
The last time this happened was when Gandhi used to go on Hunger Strikes and when Nehru used to go to Jail for protesting. In between those years India has really worked on its Democracy, thanks to its wonderful Constitution.
@Muhammad Sohail:
I just mentioned it in the post. Because of the security situation in Pakistan, no other reason.
Anna should inspire Pakistanis. India has many role models, Anna is one of the best ones.
@Muneeb Tahir: I dn,t agree with you, this is not answer because you can not find any countery in the world whcih is secured.we can,t stay in home , we will come out from houses to fight against terrorsim. As a human being we shoul work togather and fight togather against terrorsim and othter natural problems.
Terrorism is spontaneous these days,i think you forgot the Dehli HC attack and many others which go unmentioned in Gauhati etc (the areas under insurgencies). It could happen anywhere.This is extremely irresponsible at Brute force's part to make these comments.BTW his nick suggests the gun culture and savagery not being a matter in Pakistan's domain only.Keep Anna we have our own choices open.Moreover overriding democratic system should not be the aim of Pakistanis now.We have had enough of totalitarianism.Let Indians have a tinge of it now.
Pakistanis please put your trust in the democratic system.When it comes to social reform there are no shortcuts.Remember!
@Muhammad Sohail: "Can u explain why you dont want Anna come in pakistan. As a human being you and your countery people should support as you possible"
You asked this question to Bruteforce. Frankly if you see his whole post the answer is already there. He fears for Anna's life and like most middle class Indians we do not want to put his life at risk.
@BruteForce:
Can u explain why you dont want Anna come in pakistan. As ahuman being you and your countery people should support as you possible.
I dont want Anna to goto Pakistan simply because of the dismal security situation there. He is too precious.
Pakistanis are taught to hate Gandhi, and Anna's inspiration is Gandhi. He will be moving with a big bull's eye on his forehead in Pakistan, where there is massive gun culture and almost a suicide attack a week.
Ah!, bal thackerey is just feeling bad he is not invited to Pakistan. Before my desi brothers attack me I am from Mumbai and I know how much of a clown bala saheb is. He is old, he should probably dis mantle shiv sena and let government and citizens do their job without worrying what bala will do.
Please take shiv Sena also to Pakistan and leave them there. Indians won't miss them.
at least i support shive sena this time.anna should clean our own house first.
