The Vice President’s remarks came a day after Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge criticized Artificial Intelligence ADMK used with bjp and targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Haq allegedly called Prime Minister Modi a “terrorist who does not believe in equality”.Responding to the controversy, Haq said, “I clarified my statement in Chennai.”Earlier today, members of the BJP delegation, including Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Union Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal met election committeeseeking action in response to Hager’s comments.Kiren Rijiju said no political party had shown such a level of disrespect as the Congress and said the delegation urged the EC to take “severe action” and called on the Congress president to apologize to the country.“Today, a high-level delegation of the BJP met the Election Commission. It is with sadness and anger that we met the Election Commission because normally we meet the Election Commission for work related to the electoral process but today our delegation was directed against the derogatory remarks made by Congress president Mallikarjun Haq against Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This is not a problem of the BJP but of the country as a whole. By calling the Prime Minister of the country a terrorist, you can understand the low level that the Congress party has reached in terms of respecting individuals and democracy. I don’t think any political party has ever used such insulting words against the Prime Minister,” ANI quoted Rijiju as saying.
