Narendra Modi described P Chidambaram in an apparent reference to P.Chidambaram's 2009 victory in Lok Sabha polls from Sivaganga after a recounting of votes -
as the "Recounting Minister" and charged him with displaying 'excessive arrogance' while leaving the country's economy in bad shape.
"UPA government has a Recounting Minister. He lost (the election) but won in recounting. He is from Tamil Nadu. He thinks he was the first in the queue when God was distributing knowledge''
Narendra Modi said while addressing a well-attended public rally at suburban Vandalur, when Chidambaram made fun of his knowledge about economics he had kept quiet "because more the mud is thrown, better the Lotus blooms."
"He (the Finance minister) said Modi's knowledge of economics can be written behind a postage stamp. The Congress- led UPA is headed by an eminent economist (Prime Minister Manmohan Singh). The Finance Minister also thinks himself to be equally efficient. He thinks nobody else is more intelligent than him
"Only if you paste the postal stamp will the letter be delivered. I have proved myself through delivery (in Gujarat)," Narendra Modi said
Narendra Modi also attacked the Congress-led UPA government for spreading the "sampraday ke zeher ki kheti" (poison of communalism) even in the Armed forces by seeking a headcount of Muslims
Narendra Modi said when he took over the reins in Gujarat in 2001, the GDP growth rate was minus 4.8 %
"We worked hard with our so-called limited knowledge of economics. See what we have achieved. India grew at an average 7.6 % between 2001 and 2011-12 while the growth rate for Gujarat was 10.1%
Narendra Modi while attacking Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi said -
has not seen such a culture anywhere when an individual party leader tears apart the Cabinet decisions "ridiculing" the government, an apparent reference to Rahul Gandhi's opposition to the ordinance relating to convicted lawmakers.
