The NCP on Monday took strong objection to Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshiyari offering a clarification to Home Minister Amit Shah over his comments on Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj that had triggered a row.

NCP spokesperson Clyde Crasto said Koshyari had hurt the sentiments of the people of Maharashtra and he should have offered a clarification to the President and also the people of the state.
