BJP president Amit Shah today derided opposition unity moves as the motley group of animals during a flood. Hours later, responding to some angry reactions from rivals, he clarified that he was "only talking in the context of ideologies". Addressing BJP workers in Mumbai to mark the party's founding day, Amit Shah said: "A mongoose, a cat, a dog, a cheetah and lion, they are coming together because they see water rising below them. So they are all in one boat."
