Shiv Sena compares PM Modi's tenure to Alexander, Napoleon's era

The Shiv Sena on Monday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi in its editorial mouthpiece Saamna by indirectly comparing his tenure with the era of Alexander the Great and Napoleon Bonaparte.

"The golden era should not belong to only one party but to the whole state or nation. This is what we believe in. Alexander the Great and Napoleon were also not able to win the world in their political life," Saamna said.

It also blamed the BJP-PDP Government in Jammu and Kashmir for failing to control violence and also for poor law and order management during the recent Srinagar by-polls, low percentage of voting and misbehaving with the Indian Army. This comes after Prime Minister said on Sunday, "We not only want the growth of BJP but our priority is to make nation economically, socially, culturally stable as well."

However, the Shiv Sena praised Prime Minister Modi and BJP chief Amit Shah for their hard work and dedication for the upcoming elections and said that victory in most of the states is good and inspirational as well.
