"Since Raj is fighting for the Marathi Manus, we are ready to face any consequence..... but there is tension in the house," Raj's mother-in-law Padma Wagh said.

She voiced concern about Raj's son Amit, who is going to appear for the tenth standard examination next month.

"I am worried about Amit because of Raj's likely arrest, as he has to appear for SSC exams next month," she said.

"My grandchildren are too young to understand what is going on," Padma said adding, "Sharmila, my daughter is in touch with me over phone."

Raj's father-in-law, Mohan Wagh, who is a well-known Marathi drama director, spoke to Raj about the current political situation and conveyed his support to him on Monday.

"If Raj is doing something good, why should one be afraid. He's a nice boy and people have understood what he is saying. Now people will realise who is the real leader of the Marathi Manus," Mohan said.
