A new Raj Thackeray cartoon pokes fun at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent remarks on internal democracy in political parties.

The MNS chief sketched Modi shouting at Nitin Gadkari and another BJP member, as a smiling Amit Shah looks on.

"Don't you agree with my views?" Modi asks, as Gadkari and the other man tremble in fear.

Just days ago, Modi told journalists that more needed to be done so that "democracy in political parties is a subject (that) more people (get to) know more about."

It is essential that political parties develop for the future with a "true democratic spirit," where all voices are heard, he said.

This isn't the first time Raj Thackeray has used cartoons to criticise Modi.

For example, ahead of Gandhi Jayanti, he sketched Mahatma Gandhi and Modi standing shoulder-to-shoulder, holding their autobiographies up for the reader to see.

Modi's book was titled, 'My Experiments With Falsehood.'
