Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) Karnataka unit on Monday filed a complaint with the Election Commission against Congress MLA Priyank Kharge over his 'naalayak' remark about Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In his son's defence, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge said that Priyank never made the statement and that people were "putting words in his mouth".
Days after the Congress chief stirred controversy when he compared the prime minister to a "venomous snake", his son on Monday reportedly said that PM Modi was "nalayak beta" (useless son).
