the attack by his partymen at NCP office in Ambernath, Nandgaonkar said MNS workers had merely reacted to the action of the ruling party. "It is up to them to stop. Our's was a reaction to their action," he said.

NCP, however, rejected MNS charge that its workers were responsible for the attack on Thackeray's motorcade and asked its cadre not to get provoked.

State NCP president Madhukar Pichad said Maharashtra was reeling under drought and party workers should direct their energy towards constructive work to provide relief to the masses.

NCP spokesman Nawab Malik said the incident of stone pelting on Thackeray's convoy was a "managed event".

"Our workers did stage a demonstration and waved black flags at Raj's convoy to protest his derogatory remarks against our leaders at his Solapur rally," Malik said, adding the home department should act against those responsible for destruction of private and public property.

"NCP has no history of politics of destruction unlike the MNS which has mastered the art of misguiding the youth and making them anti-social elements," he said.
