"They have right to speak and demand certain things. As CPI MP I can say that Prime Minister Modi could have avoided remarks. His reply could have been more magnanimous and dignified as he is the Prime Minister of India," CPI leader D. Raja said. Raja further expressed that Prime Minister Modi should be more accommodative and conciliatory to the opposition. "He may belong to a political party but finally he is the Prime Minister of the country and he should rise above all levels. He should be more accommodative and conciliatory to the opposition," he added. Speaking in Sitarganj constituency, Gandhi said Singh was an "elected" Prime Minister of India and "when Narendra Modi speaks about Manmohan Singh in this manner, he is not talking only about Manmohan Singh, he is talking about every citizen of India".
