Prime Minister Narendra Modi Wednesday accused the Congress of insulting voters of the country by questioning the massive victory of the BJP in the Lok Sabha polls. Replying to the debate on the Motion of Thaks to the President's address in the Rajya Sabha, Modi launched a scathing attack on the Congress, saying by questioning the mandate of the people, the opposition party has put voters in the dock.

Does the Congress mean the country and country means the Congress. There is a limit of arrogance," Modi said. The prime minister said that by using such language the Congress has hurt voters of the country. Going by the Congress party's arguments, he wondered whether victory of the Congress in Wayanad and Rae Bareli seats too were "defeat of the country".

Noting that the Congress was not able to win even a single Lok Sabha seat in 17 states, he said it was time for the Congress to introspect and "accept defeat". The prime minister also hit out the Congress for questioning EVMs, which have been lauded globally.-
