Launching a scathing attack on the Congress leadership soon after he switched to Shiv Sena led by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, Milind Deora Sunday said his parent party is not the same as it used to be when Manmohan Singh had launched economic reforms.

“It is now abusing industrialists, businessmen and calling them anti-nationals,” he said addressing a gathering at Varsha, the official residence of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde in Mumbai.
