MUMBAI: Taking a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi over his reference to Balochistan in Independence Day speech, Shiv Sena on Wednesday sought to know if he will send the Army to save the Baloch leaders who have been charged with sedition for backing his remarks.

Five cases, including that of sedition, were registered recently against three top Baloch nationalist leaders+in Pakistan who backed Modi's supportive words on their struggle in Balochistan.

"Baloch leaders have paid a heavy price for supporting PM Modi. Serious offences like waging war against Pakistan have been registered against them. This is a part of Pakistan's tyrannical attitude," an editorial in Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana' said.

"What will our PM do in their support now? Will he send the Army to save Baloch leaders from Pakistan or will he once again give a speech denouncing Pakistan's action against them? These leaders are facing trouble only because they supported PM Modi's speech," it said.

The Sena also questioned Modi on the action he planned to take against those waving Pakistani flags in Kashmir.
