India, Aug. 7 -- Uddhav Thackeray of the Shiv Sena (UBT) on Thursday slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party-led NDA government, saying US President Donald Trump was "mocking" Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was "unable to give a strong reply.

At a press conference, Uddhav Thackeray alleged that Modi and Amit Shah were behaving like propaganda ministers of the BJP while the nation needed a prime minister and a home minister to deal with extant challenges.

The Shiv Sena (UBT) chief also questioned Modi after his "farmers are top priority" remark amid a 25% additional tariff on Indian goods by the US. Thackeray alleged that the Centre did not care about farmers during the 2020-21 protests against the Centre's now-repealed three farm laws.
