Union minister Smriti Irani hit back at Congress Vice-President Rahul Gandhi for drawing a parallel between PM Narendra Modi and Adolf Hitler, saying that there were "no prizes for guessing" who was inspired by the dictator and imposed the Emergency.
She also tweeted that a "bleak future" awaited the Congress and not the nation, and quipped, "However, thank you @officeofRG for all that you do. Sincerely from the BJP!"
"@OfficeOfRG u r 42 yrs late on this 1. No prizes for guessing who was inspired by Hitler, imposed the Emergency & trampled over democracy (sic)," she said in a tweet.
On Friday, Gandhi had tweeted, "Hitler, once wrote: Keep a firm grasp on reality, so you can strangle it at any time(.) This is what is happening today — strangulation of reality."
