 "Mani Shankar Aiyar")
Congress leader Mani Shankar Aiyar on Thursday triggered a major political storm by calling Prime Minister Narendra Modi a "neech aadmi" (base person), which the Prime Minister gave a caste angle, telling an election rally in Gujarat that describing him as "neech jaati" (low born) was an insult to Gujaratis who will vote out the Congress in the Assembly elections.
The Congress on Thursday suspended Aiyar from the primary membership of the party and issued him a show cause notice for his remarks against PM Modi. The disciplinary action against the Gandhi family loyalist came barely two days
