Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut criticised PM Narendra Modi, saying that PM has become Shankaracharya and that a new shrine has come up in the country called the "BJP Peeth". He further said, "Whatever PM Modi says will happen. They don’t see idols, they don’t see the shastra…People who call themselves Hindu aren’t even listening to the four Shankaracharyas."
