Shiv Sena will take its delegation to New Delhi to meet President Pratibha Patil and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to discuss Maharashtra-Karnataka border issue and urged all party members to participate in it.

Talking to presspersons at Pachora near here today, Sena's Executive President Uddhav Thackeray said that BJP should "control its Karnataka Chief Minister on Belgaum issue", and he was going to talk to senior BJP leader L K Advani in this regard.

Criticising the Congress-NCP government in Maharashtra, Uddhav said that there was no change in the situation even after the Congress has replaced its Chief Minister.

When asked about Pakistan's statement that it could seek handover of accused of Malegaon blast allegedly involved in Samjhauta Express bombing to it, Uddhav said that it was not proper as the issue belongs to India.

Uddhav said that India should not continue relations with Pakistan in cricket, even in Twenty20 matches and trades, and Shiv Sena chief Balasaheb (Bal Thackeray) has been telling this since past many years.

But now the Union Minister M S Gill is realising the issue, he added.

He said that we should require strong governments both at the Centre and in the state. Uddhav, who is on a day's visit to Jalgaon district, will address a farmers rally at Bhadgaon later in the day.
