Priyanka Gandhi today once again took on the BJP's PM candidate Narendra Modi for his constant "Shehzada" jibe against her brother and party vice president Rahul Gandhi.

Addressing party workers, Priyanka, who has over the last week made headlines for her sharp political attacks, questioned whether a person aspiring to be the next prime minister should make such 'childish remarks'.

"Why should a prime ministerial candidate makes such childish remarks like calling Rahul 'shehzada'? He should learn to respect the post he aspires to get," she said.

Listing out the development projects carried out by her brother in her constituency, Priyanka said there needs to be greater cooperation between the central and state governments for better development.

"Rahul like his father late Rajiv Gandhi has a long term vision about development... Today there are 20 trains running through Amethi that connect you'll to the rest of the country... The food park, that will soon start, will benefit many farmers. Rahul also started milk chilling booths here so that no one faces any shortage of milk," she said.

Taking on the BJP, which has termed the Congress manifesto as a 'dhoka patra', Priyanka said they should list out their development agenda in their manifesto instead of copying the Congress.

"The Congress manifesto has been copied by BJP. Can't they talk about development? When they come to ask you for votes, ask them what they will do for your future," she said.

Priyanka also took on the BJP candidate from Amethi, Smriti Irani, saying she was someone who has no connect with the constituency.

"Some opposition leaders come here and spread misinformation, they are not in touch with ground reality," she said.

However, the BJP candidate, Irani, was quick to react.

"Whenever she attacks me, she exposes the failure of Rahul Gandhi... I won't respond to Priyanka as she's not the candidate, but whatever I am I have never lived of my family name," Irani told Times Now soon after Priyanka's comments were aired.
