BJP today came down heavily on Congress for accusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi of not being a responsible son and not inviting his mother to his swearing-in ceremony.

The party said Mr. Modi is very much attached to his mother and he touched her feet after Lok Sabha election victory which is in contrast to Congress where a mother has ruined the party for his son referring to Sonia and Rahul Gandhi.

Briefing media in New Delhi, BJP spokesperson M J Akbar said the opposition party get personal by making such remarks and one should keep away such relations from politics.

He said Congress leadership is unable to see that Mr. Modi is raising the prestige and prosperity of the country.

Mr. Akbar also took a dig at Congress Vice President’s foreign visit saying the way Rahul Gandhi is playing hide and seek about his tour, it is difficult to believe that he is attending an event in Aspen as claimed by his office.

The spokesperson questioned why Mr. Gandhi tries to hide his visit saying it is this behaviour which has made him a spoilt child of Indian politics.
