Punjab Assembly elections: PM Modi tears into Channi in poll rally

Modi also appealed to the "first-time" voters to be part of the change in Punjab

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday hit out at Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi for his "UP de bhaiye" remark and also targeted the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), accusing it of insulting the Sikhs and Punjabis. 

Lashing out at Channi over his remark, Modi asked if the CM could use the language for the land where Guru Ravidas and Sikh Guru Gobind Singh were born.

“He (Guru Gobind Singh) was born in Patna Sahib in Bihar. And you say you will not let people of Bihar enter. Will you then insult Guru Gobind Singh ji? Will you tolerate Guru Gobind Singh's insult?
