Maharashtra BJP president Chandrakant Patil on Friday targeted Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut and sought to know why he recently raked up the months-old issue of "bungalows" allegedly owned by Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's wife in a village in Raigad district.

Patil said question arises whether Raut, a Rajya Sabha MP, did so at someone's behest to weaken the foundation of "Matoshree", the private residence of Thackeray in Mumbai's suburb of Bandra.
