Earlier speaking in Ghaziabad, Gandhi said Imran's remarks were against the party's ideology.
"He should not have used such words against the opposition leader. I want to tell the whole country that words he used against one of opposition leaders is not our ideology," Rahul said there.
"Congress Party is of Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs and Christians. We do not get angry, we do our work peacefully and with love," Rahul said.
At Saharanpur, the Congress Vice President said the politics of Congress is of taking everybody along as the nation can be built only then.
"You need to understand the people in opposition. They do the politics of anger. We do not have to do the politics of anger but of love and respect. We have to fight and defeat the politics of anger. You will see that we are going to defeat the politics of anger with love."
A video footage of the election rally in Saharanpur, showing Masood attacking the BJP's Prime Ministerial candidate, had gone viral on the web.
The Congress candidate was seen in the video as saying that "If Modi tries to make Uttar Pradesh into Gujarat, then we will chop him into tiny pieces...I am not scared of getting killed or attacking someone. I will fight against Modi. He thinks UP is Gujarat. Only 4 per cent Muslims are there in Gujarat while there are 42 per cent Muslims in UP."
