Taking a jibe at Congress President Rahul Gandhi, Union Minister Smriti Irani on Monday sought to know how those who "looted the poor" could criticise Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

She also asked how those who indulged in "corruption" and "filled the coffers of Congress" target the "pradhan sevak"?.

Irani's comments came in the backdrop of Gandhi's attack on Modi over the Rafale deal.

In a veiled reference to Gandhi's brother-in-law Robert Vadra's alleged acquisition of properties in London, she said, "Those who lived amidst the rich and looted the poor for years.. whose brother-in-law purchases assets in London, have the temerity to cast aspersions on the Prime Minister."
