BJP's estranged ally Shiv Sena and opposition Congress Monday targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi for ridiculing opposition's show of unity last week, claiming it has given him the "shivers" and injected some kind of "fear" ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.

As the Sena and the Congress took a swipe at the prime minister, senior BJP leader and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said any opposition grouping will be an unviable and an unworkable short-lived combination and asked, "Is it Modi vs Chaos?
"Only those who have undermined and tried to sabotage the Constitution seem to be extremely perturbed by Opposition unity."
