    What's the story

    Condemning Prime Minister Modi for his attacking remarks on the Congress party, former PM Manmohan Singh wrote a letter to President Ram Nath Kovind asking him to caution Modi against using "unwarranted, threatening and intimidating language."

    "If you cross the boundary, then this is Modi, you will face a backlash," the letter quoted PM Modi as saying during a rally in Hubli on May 6.

    What really happened?

    Quote

    "Congress leaders, listen with your ears wide open"

    "Congress leaders listen with your ears wide open. If you cross the boundary, then this is Modi, you will face a backlash (Congress ke neta kan kholkar sun lijiye, agar simayon ko par karenge, ye Modi hain, lene ke dene par jayenge)," the letter quoted.

    PM Modi’s unbecoming conduct threatening language deserves severe condemnation. No PM has stooped so low brought the office of Prime Minister into disrepute as Modi ji has continuously done.

    Earlier, Narendra Modi and BJP, on the last day of campaigning in Karnataka, took a jibe on Rahul Gandhi's mother, Sonia Gandhi with her former name - Antonio Maino.

    Replying to BJP's accusation of Sonia being a foreigner, Congress President Rahul Gandhi said his mother is more Indian than "many Indians I know" and has made sacrifices for the country.
