BJP president Amit Shah on Wednesday hit back at former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh who put out a televised version of his response to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s accusations over a dinner he attended with Pakistani diplomatic officials, former Indian diplomats and senior journalists.

“Amused to see the Congress party so desperate before the Gujarat elections. Just a day before polling, both Shri Rahul Gandhi and respected Manmohan Singhji are only maliciously attacking Prime Minister Modi,” he said.

“We want to ask respected Manmohan Singh ji why he was not angry and anguished when a Chief Minister of his country was called maut ka saudagar . Why is he still silent when the Prime Minister of his country is called neech ,” Mr. Shah said.
