Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], May 2 (ANI): Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday for spending nine hours with film stars without any trace of worry amid the rage in the country over the Pahalgam attack.
Raut said that there is anger in the country, and the credit goes to the Indian Army, which has enabled PM Modi to travel freely. “We will provide support to the government, but the opposition will not condone the mistakes it has made over the past ten years,” he said adding the leadership in India is hollow.
“There is anger in the country, and our Prime Minister comes to Mumbai, spending nine hours with film stars, looking comfortable, with not a trace of worry. The credit for this should also go to the Indian Army because they are ready to fight on the border, which is why the Prime Minister is travelling around. Whatever happened and whatever will happen is the credit of the Indian Army, but the leadership is hollow. We will support the government, but we will never condone the mistakes they have made over the last 10 years”, Raut said.
