Hitting back at Union Minister Smriti Irani and the BJP for demanding an apology from Rahul Gandhi over the ‘Modi surname’ remark, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury said that neither Prime Minister Narendra Modi nor the Amethi MP should “become ‘thekedar’ of OBC”. This comes after Smriti Irani slammed Rahul Gandhi for not issuing an apology to the OBC community over his remarks and said that the Congress leader insulted the OBC in an attempt to insult Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
