"All are sycophants and fools!" the post read.

His remarks came a day after six senior NCP leaders met Amit Shah in Delhi amid discussions within the party over its demand for the Finance Ministry portfolio in Maharashtra to be returned to the NCP.

The delegation included Dhananjay Munde, Sunil Tatkare, Praful Patel, Hasan Mushrif, Chhagan Bhujbal and Dilip Walse Patil.

The meeting comes amid discussions over the demand for the Finance Ministry portfolio to be handed back to the NCP. The absence of Sunetra Pawar and Parth Pawar from the meeting has also raised questions over the party's leadership.

A day earlier, Raut took a swipe at the BJP over the 'Loktantra Bachao, Arajakta Hatao' march, and said, "The destroyers of democracy are holding rallies to save democracy; this is the biggest irony."

Raut said the INDIA bloc's 'Chalo Dilli' rally was centred on the issues of protecting democracy. He compared the gathering to the 1974 rally held in support of Jayaprakash Narayan.

Speaking to ANI, Raut said, "Let them do it. The destroyers of democracy are holding rallies to save democracy; this is the biggest irony. This kind of irony used to happen in other countries."Raut said the INDIA bloc's 'Chalo Dilli' rally was centred on the issues of protecting democracy. He compared the gathering to the 1974 rally held in support of Jayaprakash Narayan." (ANI)
