Several BJP functionaries came out strongly against Rahul and accused him of insulting voters NEW DELHI: BJP slammed Rahul Gandhi on Thursday for using “vulgar and crude” language in targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying he appears less like the leader of the opposition and more like a failed stand-up comedian. Several BJP functionaries came out strongly against Rahul and accused him of insulting voters, who have elected Modi to office three times in a row.”When will you grow up?

By insulting the PM, you mock millions of voters who chose him for three historic terms,” Union minister Pralhad Joshi said.
