Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi today hit out at Narendra Modi for dubbing Priyanka's “neech rajniti” remark as an attack on his caste. Responding to a question in Amethi about the controversy triggered by his sister's remark, Rahul said people's actions are low, not their caste. He said it is ideology which is low and alleged that there was an ideology of anger.

Modi had yesterday played the caste card to counter Priyanka's attack and questioned whether belonging to a low caste was a crime.

Priyanka had on Monday hit out at Modi, saying he had insulted her martyred father Rajiv Gandhi during his speech in Amethi and accused the Gujarat Chief Minister of indulging in “low-level” politics.
