The Wanabeel, New Delhi: A combative Rahul Gandhi tore into Prime Minister Narendra Modi a day after the top opposition leader was disqualified from parliament.
Mr Gandhi claimed the Prime Minister is scared of his next speech and used a Veer Savarkar reference to answer why he didn't apologise over his remarks in London and during the defamation trial in which he was convicted.
The BJP, meanwhile, doubled down on its attack on Mr Gandhi, claiming the Congress was trying to project him as a victim for electoral gains.
"I have been disqualified as the Prime Minister is scared of my next speech. I have seen fear in his eyes. That's why they don't want me to speak in the Parliament," said the Congress leader.
Responding on the BJP's calls for apology, he said, "My name is not Savarkar. I am a Gandhi. I won't apologise."
The BJP had projected this remark as a smear campaign against those who share the Modi surname and the OBC community.
