Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Sunday said there is a need to restructure the UPA. He added that the new alliance should be led by a senior leader like Sharad Pawar as many regional parties are not ready to work under the leadership of the Congress. The future of this alliance would depend on the sacrifice of the Congress, he said.
The Sena MP added that there was no National Democratic Alliance left in the country as its allies have quit, but similarly, the existence of the United Progressive Alliance is not visible as it has very few parties now.
"This new alliance should be led by a senior leader like Sharad Pawar. If that happens, then many more parties can join the alliance in future. But this is not possible without the consent of the Congress. This future of the (restructured) alliance will depend on the sacrifice and liberality of the Congress," Raut added.

The Congress leader also spoke on how to remove religion from political discourse among youth while interacting with professors at St Xavier's College in Tamil Nadu's Tirunelveli. &lsquo;There is too much power being centralised in one institution (in the NEP). This centralisation of power is going to damage the education system&rsquo;, he said.&rsquo; As long as ideas are competing without hatred and anger, there is no problem.

In a scathing attack on PM Narendra Modi and the 'corrupt' AIADMK government in Tamil Nadu, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday charged that the Prime Minister was seeking to "remote control" Tamil Nadu through Chief Minister K Palaniswami. Rahul billed himself as a "honest" man and said Modi cannot control him.
"Modi thinks Tamil Nadu is like his television, he can pick up remote and do whatever he wants. He can put the volume up and the CM will talk louder and vice versa. He thinks he can control people of TN, but people are going to remove the battery from remote and throw away," said Rahul.
"The only one reason Narendra Modi can't frighten me, is I am not corrupt. And because I am not corrupt I can stand up against him and tell him the truth," he said.
Rahul Gandhi was interacting with salt pan workers, where he recalled his party's poll-time promise of providing Rs 72,000 under the NYAY scheme and assured them that it would be implemented if the Congress was voted to power.
