The Congress party had on Sunday sought an unconditional apology from the Prime Minister for his remarks on the late PM.
While addressing an election rally in Uttar Pradesh on Saturday, PM Modi had hit out at Rahul Gandhi, saying: "Your father was termed 'Mr Clean' by his courtiers, but his life ended as 'Bhrashtachari No 1'."
