After Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi's attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his 'raincoat' barb on former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, veteran actor Anupam Kher ' title=' Anupam Kher '>Anupam Kher reminded him of how he insulted Singh.

"Sorry but nobody has insulted the Prime Minister more than you. Remember tearing the ordinance in a press conference. Unless you think you are royalty," Anupam, whose wife Kirron Kher is a BJP MP from Chandigarh, tweeted on Thursday.

The actor, who has himself been a supporter of the BJP and Modi, reacted to Gandhi's tweet that Modi demeaned his position and himself more than anyone else by launching a surprise attack on Mammohan Singh.

Gandhi's tweet read: "When a Prime Minister reduces himself to ridiculing his predecessor -- years his senior, he hurts the dignity of the parliament and the nation."
 

This came in reponse to Modi's Wednesday jibe at Singh, saying: "Only Doctor Sahab (Manmohan Singh) knows the art of bathing wearing a rain coat."

"For around 35 years, he (Manmohan) has had a say or a role in India's economic policy and decisions. In these 35 years, we heard of many a scam, but he has remained free of any blemish."

"There is a lot for us politicians to learn... so much happened he did not get even a taint. Only Doctor Sahab (Manmohan Singh) knows the art of bathing wearing a rain coat," Modi said, resulting in a huge uproar and walkout in the Rajya Sabha from Congress members.
