Mamata feels proud to accept Pakistan PM but not me: Narendra Modi

"Didi is not ready to accept his own Prime Minister but she feels proud to accept the Pakistan Prime Minister," Modi said while addressing a rally in West Bengal's Bankura.

Explaining her decision not to respond to Modi's phone calls over cyclone Fani, Banerjee, who heads the Trinamool Congress, had said: "I do not consider Narendra Modi as the Prime Minister. He is an expiry Prime Minister. I will talk to the new Prime Minister after May 23 (date of counting)."

Addressing a crowd at Banerjee's citadel, Modi also responded to the Chief Minister's "slap" remark saying, "Didi's language reveals how much she is puzzled. She is speaking about stones and slaps. I am used to abuses but Didi is disrespecting the country's constitution."

In an ugly political fight between the Trinamool and BJP in the eastern state, Banerjee, while responding to Modi's reference to Trinamool as an extortionist party, on Tuesday said she feels like giving a "slap of democracy" to the Prime Minister.

Earlier, the Trinamool chief, who has given a call to win all 42 Lok Sabha seats in West Bengal, said she would send a rosogolla (sweet) of sand with stones in it to Modi, who revealed in a non-political interview with actor Akshay Kumar that Banerjee used to send him kurtas every year.

Not wasting much time, the Left and Congress, which are fighting a battle of survival in West Bengal, accused Trinamool and BJP of having bonhomie behind the curtains.

As the country is heading towards the sixth phase of Lok Sabha polls, the BJP is eyeing to make a dent in south Bengal, which is a Trinamool bastion.

In Bankura, BJP's Subhas Sarkar is up against Trinamool veteran and former state minister Subrata Mukherjee.
