Raut highlighted the current crisis in India, which he claims has escalated post-elections, and criticized the BJP's handling of national institutions, alleging they are under total control of the party. He specifically called out the impact of Modi's foreign policy decisions, questioning why critical global issues, such as the Iran war, were not addressed. Raut also noted the inconvenience caused by heavy security measures for state leaders, citing a recent incident in Pune where traffic was severely disrupted due to Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis's convoy.
