Hours after an unexpected hug by Rahul Gandhi, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today took at dig at the Congress president's apparent post-hug wink in Parliament saying the entire nation saw what the eyes did today.
Making gestures with his hands and eyes to show Gandhi's 'wink', Modi said it was clear in front of everyone what the Congress leader's eyed did and the same was splashed across TV channels throughout the day.
Referring to Gandhi's apparent slip of tongue in saying that the prime minister could not see him eye-to-eye, Modi said, "You are a 'naamdaar' (known by name) and I am 'kaamdar' (known by work). I cannot dare see you eye-to-eye."
