Mumbai, May 8: Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut on Sunday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi is in "love" with Adolf Hitler who used to "do a lot of events", and follows the German dictator.
Taking a dig, Raut said that currently, if anyone praises Hitler it cannot be treated as sedition.
Speaking at a function of Shiv Sena, the party's chief spokesperson also said that Sena founder Bal Thackeray had also admired Hitler who was a popular leader.
Hitler used to do a lot of events that's what Modi does. In fact, Modi follows Hitler. Look at social media. The way Hitler used to do events, Modi and his party do it similarly...I am not criticising him (Modi) though, Raut said.
He referred to Germany hosting the Summer Olympics in Berlin in 1936.
Hitler was a popular leader who may have been defeated later. Balasaheb Thackeray (Shiv Sena founder) admired him. Even PM Modi is in love with him (Hitler). Currently, if anyone praises Hitler, it cannot be treated as sedition, he said.

New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday introduced three key bills in the Lok Sabha, the Constitution (One Hundred and Thirtieth Amendment) Bill, 2025, the Government of Union Territories (Amendment) Bill, 2025, and the Jammu and Kashmir Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2025.
The session witnessed strong protests from the Opposition, with copies of the bills torn and thrown towards the Home Minister, leading to adjournment till 3 pm.
The Constitution (130th Amendment) Bill seeks to provide a constitutional framework for the removal of the Prime Minister, Union ministers, chief ministers, or state/UT ministers if they are arrested and detained for 30 consecutive days on serious criminal charges carrying a minimum punishment of five years. On the 31st day of detention, the ministerial post would automatically stand vacated.
The Bill proposes amendments to Articles 75, 164, and 239AA of the Constitution to fill what the government described as a gap in existing provisions.
Opposing the move, AIMIM president Asaduddin Owaisi argued that the legislation undermines the principle of separation of powers and could lead to the misuse of executive authority. He warned that the measure would turn India into a “police state” and deal a “death nail” to elected governments.
The other two bills lay down procedures for removing chief ministers and ministers in Union Territories, including Puducherry and Jammu and Kashmir.
