Congress has been rejected comprehensively across the nation and Gujarat too will reject the Congress and will punish them for their politics, said Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Lunavada.

Addressing an election rally in Lunavada on Saturday Modi alleged that the Congress leader Salman Nizami, who was campaigning for Congress in Gujarat, has insulted him by tweeting ''who's your mother, who is your father.''

''There is a youth Congress leader Salman Nizami, he is even campaigning for Congress in Gujarat. He wrote on Twitter about Rahul Ji's father, grandmother. That is ok but he asks - Modi tell me who is your Mother, who is your father? Such language can't even be used for enemies,'' Modi said.

Salman Nizami, Modi alleged, called for Azad Kashmir. He also called the army rapists, Modi said and added ``How can the people accept such people like Salman Nizami? He also says there will be an Afzal from every home.''

Modi also accused the Congress of misleading the country with false promises. "In every part of the nation, the Congress has misled the Muslim community. They have made fake promises of reservations for Muslims but in no state have they fulfilled their promise,'' Modi said.

Emphasising his commitment for the country, the prime minister said ''I want to tell all Congress leaders who are abusing me, mocking my poor family, asking who my parents are- this nation is my everything. Every moment of my time is devoted to India and 125 crore Indians.''

However, Congress leader Rajiv Shukla rejected Modi's allegations by sayingSalman Nizami does not hold any position in the party.

"Salman Nizami kaun hai hum jaante hi nahi. He does not hold any position in the party. We can also say that there is some random person Ram Lal in BJP who said something,'' Rajiv Shukla said on PM Modi's remarks about Salman Nizami.
