MUMBAI: Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi saying he was busy with the inauguration of the state-of-the-art infrastructure surrounding the historic Kashi Vishwanath temple but did not have time to visit Parliament, the temple of democracy for 15 days.
In his weekly column Rok Thok in party mouthpiece Saamna Raut said that democracy and freedom had been left out in the open. “What would Mother Ganga do?” Raut asked in his column.
“The country’s Parliament doesn’t function. Twelve Rajya Sabha MPs have been suspended and the Rajya Sabha hasn’t been functioning because of this. The PM went to Kashi but for the past 15 days he hasn’t visited the Kashi of democracy, which is the Parliament. The Ganga of the country’s parliamentary democracy has been polluted,” Raut said.
