In a novel, the Youth Congress on Thursday collected hair and nail samples of 51 young people and sent them to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to "test DNA of the youth" to see what they want from him.

The Youth Congress did it so that the prime minister break his silence on the issue of "BJP's corrupt leaders", Delhi Pradesh Youth Congress president Amit Mallik said in a release here.

"Youth Congress will hold similar protest nationwide if their leaders do not resign," he added.

"The prime minister should test DNA of youth of the nation from the samples sent to him and analyse the demand of the youth of the nation," he said.

The Congress has been demanding resignations of External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj and Rajasthan Chief Minister Vasundhra Raje for their alleged help to former IPL chief Lalit Midi, and Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan over Vyapam scam.
