Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a veiled dig at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav on Friday, saying the shooting of the film “do shehzade ki jodi” is on but it has already been rejected by people.

“Every time these people seek votes from the people of Uttar Pradesh, they carry a basket of dynasty, corruption and appeasement. They do not leave any chance to attack our faith,” Modi said, addressing a rally here.

In a veiled attack on Gandhi and Yadav, he said, “The shooting of the film ‘do shehzade ki jodi (a pair of princes)’ is going on. But their film has already been rejected by people.”

Hitting out at Danish Ali, the Congress candidate from Amroha, Modi alleged that he has objections in saying “Bharat Mata ki jai”.

“Will a person, who cannot accept Bharat Mata ki jai, look good in the Indian Parliament? Should such a person be allowed entry into the Indian Parliament?” he asked the gathering.

Slamming the opposition, the prime minister said, “The SP and the Congress declined the invitation for the Ram temple’s consecration ceremony in Ayodhya. People hankering for vote banks refused the invitation for the ceremony. Instead, look at those who fought the Babri Masjid case in the Supreme Court but still participated in the consecration ceremony after losing the case.”

Iqbal Ansari, a litigant in the Ram Janmabhoomi-Babri Masjid case, attended the consecration ceremony of the Ram temple on January 22.
