Union Minister Salman Khurshid on Tuesday described Narendra Modi as "impotent", a remark that invited a sharp condemnation from the BJP. <br /><br />The External Affairs Minister's fresh salvo against the BJP Prime Ministerial candidate at a rally here came as he raised questions on the Gujarat Chief Minister's handling of the post-Godhra riots in 2002. Khurshid had once compared Modi to the proverbial frog just out of the well. <br /><br />Without taking the name of Modi, Khurshid, who is a sitting MP from Farrukhabad, asked why a man who aspires to be the prime minister of the country could not do anything during the 2002 riots.<br /><br /><br /> <br />"Some people came, attacked and went, and you couldn't protect. Are you not a strong man?," the senior Congress leader asked. <br /><br />"We don't accuse you (Modi) of killing people... Hamara aarop hai ki tum 'napunsak'(impotent) ho. (Our accusation is that you are impotent). You couldn't stop the killers," he added. 'napunsak' is a term used for impotent men in Hindi. <br /><br />Modi's close aide and Gujarat Minister Jay Narayan Vyas said Khurshid's "absolutely indecent comment" reflected the "frustration" of the Congress leaders ahead of the Lok Sabha polls. <br /><br />For More information on this news visit : http://www.newsx.com/<br />Connect with us on Social platform at : http://www.facebook.com/newsxonline<br />Subscribe to our YouTube Channel : http://www.youtube.com/newsxlive
