“I do not go by the media reports. There is no official statement on this. The BJP owes its success to Narendra Modi for the last seven years and currently, he is the top leader of the country and his party,” the parliamentarian said.

The Rajya Sabha leader’s statement comes days after Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray and PM Narendra Modi held a one-on-one meeting for 30 minutes. The meeting between both leaders led to several speculations in political circles but Sena leaders said that Uddhav and PM Modi discussed the issue of nomination of 12 members to the Legislative Council and other political issues.

Raut also said that the Prime Minister belongs to the nation and not to any particular party citing that administration may get affected if the Prime Minister gets involved in electoral campaigns.
