MUMBAI:
Shiv Sena supremo Bal Thackeray today lashed out at Pakistani actor
Veena Malik and all other artistes, saying all of them should be packed
off to their country.

In an editorial in his party's organ
Saamna, Bal Thackeray writes: "Veena Malik is a blot on our country's
culture. Who is Veena Malik? Why is so much ruckus being raised about
her?

"She goes missing for some days and it appears to be a publicity stunt
….sometimes she does obscene acts in Bigg Boss and sometimes she gets herself photographed in the nude for magazines.

"Veena is not such a big actress from Pakistan that we should go on praising her.

"I
think she has a temporary visa and she is staying here since months. It
seems she has obtained Indian citizenship. This amounts to stabbing
oneself in the back.

"There is a trend in Bollywood to hire
Pakistani artistes. Pakistani actors come to India and do not want to
leave. People from Pakistan come to India to watch cricket matches and
suddenly vanish. It's difficult to say whether they work for terror
outfits or not.

"We are so careless that we are welcoming our enemies too.

"Adnan
Sami also seems uninterested in going back to his home country.
Pakistani comic artistes come here in the name of improving ties and go
back earning money.

"On the other side, Pakistani government
doesn't even give visas to our artistes. There is a virtual ban on entry
of Amitabh Bachchan, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle in Pakistan.
