“The government has lost control over everything. The only area it has control over is CBI and to some extent Income Tax department,” Modi who was weighed against silver at the function said.

“Tonight they will watch video of this event. Who shook hands with me, who garlanded me...they will be on Income Tax department's radar. Does a government function with such vendetta? But Modi is made of different stuff. I am made of the soil from which Sardar Patel and Mahatma Gandhi were made,” he said.

“There is a crisis of confidence in the country. Nobody trusts anybody. There are several partners in the UPA including one from Maharashtra. Ask them are they happy and they will tell you in private they are not. They are only thinking when to quit, how to quit,” he said.

Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray and BJP deputy leader in the Lok Sabha Gopinath Munde were present at the function but only Modi spoke.
