Sibal on Tuesday, April 22 said, "He himself gives such statements, he has a forked tongue. This is all politics."

In his tweet from his Twitter account, Modi said, "I disapprove any such irresponsible statement & appeal to those making them to kindly refrain from doing so. Petty statements by those claiming to be BJP's well-wishers are deviating the campaign from the issues of development & good governance (sic)."

However, BJP leaders defended Modi. Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi was quoted as saying, "We are going to elections on development, good governance and issues. Modi has tweeted because we feel that the elections should be on issues. Congress is trying to divert the attention and deviate from main issues."
