Hitting back at Narendra Modi for his 'AK49' and 'Pakistani agent' jibe at him, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Arvind Kejriwal said such comments do not suit a prime ministerial candidate.
Interacting with reporters at Kardhana village in Varanasi, Mr Kejriwal said, "He (Modi) should talk on issues and not get into bad mouthing. Such words do not suit a man who is a prime ministerial candidate."
Mr Kejriwal, who announced his candidature against Mr Modi yesterday, said Mr Modi did not even meet him when he wanted to talk about development in Gujarat.
Earlier addressing a rally in Jammu, Mr Modi called Defence Minister A K Antony and Mr Kejriwal "agents of Pakistan and enemy of India".
"Three AKs have emerged as a unique strength for Pakistan. One is AK-47 which has been used to cause bloodshed in Kashmir. The second is A K Antony, who informs Parliament that people wearing the dress of Pakistan army beheaded our soldiers while our Army says Pakistanis had come... "Third AK which is AK-49 who has just given birth to a new party," Mr Modi said, in a reference to Mr Kejriwal, who resigned after 49 days as chief minister of Delhi.
