Mumbai mayor compares Modi with Hitler


Mumbai, July 20 (IANS): Mumbai Mayor and Shiv Sena leader Snehal Ambekar has compared Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Hitler.

In an interview with the Afternoon Despatch & Courier, the 43-year-old said: "I admire Narendra Modi for his self-reliant way of working. But at some level, I feel his rule is quite like Hitler...

"This is bound to happen when power is concentrated in the hands of one man," said Ambekar, a first-time municipal corporator.

Elected the city's seventh woman and first Dalit woman mayor in September 2014, Ambekar has been seeking a red beacon for her vehicle.

The former Life Insurance Corp (LIC) officer claimed that her position in the city was akin to that of the chief minister.

"If a chief minister has red beacon, a mayor's status is pretty similar in terms of a city," she said.

Ambekar's comments were the latest in a series of the barbs the Shiv Sena has fired at the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party. Both parties are allies in the centre and in Maharashtra.

    modi wants to break off from shivsena party to teach this party a fitting lesson in bmc corporation polls which is the richest corporation in entire asia which will be held later this year.untill today shivsena enjoyed being its head with support of bjp.now modi-shah wants to go alone in the polls which will be held later this year.ncp is also ready to support bjp if it is short of majority post elections.shivsena is feeling the heat for its outbursts against modi and also of fear of exiting the chairmanship of asias richest body.so this mindless outbursts.

    modi knows who are his friends and who are his enemies as he and shah are already preparing for 2019 ls elections which they intend to fight with bjp-ncp combine.

    No question that he is showing the clear-cut signs of an autocrat moving in that direction step by step. Some are mentioning that but majority of the BJP party leaders are afraid of him due to the fear of losing their chairs.
