“PM @narendramodi’s comments against former PM #RajivGandhi are not only despicable and highly condemnable but also reflect the PM’s state of mind. Fear and frustration have taken over his judgement. #ShameOnPMModi,” Kumaraswamy tweeted.

At a rally in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday, Modi had targeted the former prime minister while attacking Rahul.

“Your father was termed Mr Clean by his courtiers, but his life ended as bhrashtachari no 1,” Modi had said.

Modi had claimed that Rahul had admitted in an interview that his only aim is to tarnish his image.

“By hurling abuses, you cannot turn the 50 long years of Modi’s Tapasya (struggle) into dust,” the prime minister had said.

Rahul Gandhi too had reacted sharply to Modi’s statement, saying “Modi Ji, The battle is over. Your Karma awaits you. Projecting your inner beliefs about yourself onto my father won’t protect you. All my love and a huge hug.
