The leaders of Maha Vikas Aghadi opposed the construction of Ram Temple. For the sake of votes, they used the words like 'Bhagwa aatankwad'. They disrespect Veer Savarkar. They passed a resolution in J&K for the restoration of Article 370...Maha Vikas Aghadi always keeps their party above the nation and they have problems with India's progress...They never gave the status of classical language to Marathi language...”. PM Modi in Mumbai also took a dig at the Shiv Sena (UBT) and said that there is a party in the Aghadi which has handed over its remote control to the Congress which insulted Bala Saheb.
