New Delhi: Angry Shiv Sainiks protested outside the Bombay Stock Exchange on Tuesday, demanding the name of India’s stock exchange be changed to Mumbai Stock Exchange.
Five among the protestors met the BSE management and gave them an eight-day deadline to change the name.
The management informed the protestors that it’s not possible under the law to change the name but the matter will be taken to the Board members.
This incident is the latest in the series of the Mumbai-Bombay tug of war. Apart from BSE, the other targets were Bombay Scottish school and the Bombay Dyeing Mills.
Sena workers on Monday blackened the signboards and demanded that Mumbai be used in place of Bombay.
On Sunday, Shiv Sena members vandalised signboards of two prominent institutions, which cling on to the B-word in their names.
