Reacting to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's breaking down emotionally while talking about his mother with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg in California, All India Mahila Congress president Shobha Oza said Modi was a big drama king.

"On the one hand, he doesn't bother to meet his mother more than once a year, his wife has to make use of the RTI to know her own rights. A person who doesn't give his wife her rights, and who doesn't keeps his own mother in the PM's residence speaks and sheds crocodile tears while remembering his mother, clearly shows how big a drama king he is," Oza told ANI.

Former union minister Anand Sharma said "Prime Minister did not even invite his mother to swearing-in ceremony. So, instead of crying abroad, he should be a responsible son."

"The Prime Minister says his mother used to clean utensils in other people's homes. Sadly, this is a lie, He is insulting his mother," Sharma added.
