New Delhi, July 2: BJP spokesperson Meenakshi Lekhi joined the war of words between Congress and BJP over the Uttarakhand tragedy even as the grim task of tracing the thousands missing and cremating the many dead continued in the state.
Reacting to the snide epithet of "Rambo" given by Congress to Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, Lekhi said, "it was better to be a Rambo than a dumbo or a scambo".
Modi was given the nickname ever since a newspaper reported that he had visited flood-hit Uttarkhand and rescued 15,000 Gujaratis stranded there. BJP however has not attested to any such rescue operation.
In a sharp reaction to Finance Minister P Chidambaram's statement that Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi is a divisive figure, Lekhi said such leaders are suffering from "Modi-phobia" and a psycho-analysis test should be performed on them.
