“If Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has any self respect left then I think he should call it a day because the supercop who can correct the system has arrived on the scene,” said BJP spokesperson Meenakshi Lekhi.
Jaitley also asked the Prime Minister to react to Rahul's remarks.
“The country is waiting to see whether the Prime Minister has any self-respect left ...whether he accepts this
compliment of being called nonsense or does he react for the honour of his own government,” he said when asked whether Rahul's statement is seen as a political gimmick.
Noting that Rahul's attack is a “desperate damage control” exercise, Jaitley said it's only when the “revulsion
is built, the Congress party is trying to cut its losses.”
