Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde slammed the opposition for comparing Prime Minister Narendra Modi with Aurangzeb and said it is an insult to the nation. According to the report, CM Shinde said despite PM Modi having fulfilled Balasaheb's dream of Ram Mandir, he is compared with Aurangzeb. 

CM Shinde was quoted in an ANI report as saying, "It's very unfortunate that the PM who has fulfilled Balasaheb's dream of Ram Mandir has been compared with Aurangzeb. It's an insult to the nation, and people will give them a befitting reply in the election. PM Modi has fulfilled Balasaheb Thackeray's dream by revoking Article 370. Yet, they are still comparing PM Modi to the Mughal emperor Aurangzeb."
