He said that no matter how much resentment or political disagreement Rahul Gandhi has towards Prime Minister Narendra Modi, such indecent remarks cannot be accepted.

'An insult to India's reputation too'

The Defense Minister defended the leadership of Prime Minister Modi and said that he has worked to increase India's prestige at the international level. According to Rajnath Singh, such remarks against the Prime Minister are not only an insult to him, but it also affects India's international image and the dignity of democratic institutions.

He questioned the Congress whether after such conduct the party can claim the legacy of those great leaders who made significant contributions to the democratic and political history of the country.

Rajnath Singh said that the post of Leader of Opposition has its own dignity and responsible conduct is expected from the person holding this post.
