While the Congressmen were shouting 'Rahul, Rahul', the BJP workers shouted 'Modi, Modi'.Talking to TOI, Sanghavi said, "The Chai-wala jibe on PM shows the frustration level in Congress as the dates for elections nears. They (Congress) are indulging in loose politics by targeting PM. We will not tolerate this and demand an apology from Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi for humiliating PM."Congress spokesperson, Aslam Cyclewala said, "The BJP workers could have protested on the streets, rather than coming to the Congress office and creating ruckus. Had there been some skirmishes, the entire responsibility would have been of the Majura BJP candidate. The post has been deleted, but BJP is looking for some issues for the Gujarat elections."
