PRIME Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday dubbed the Congress a "disciple" of Pakistan, and said the neighbouring country was eager to make the "shehzada" of the grand old party the next prime minister of India.

In Gujarat, PM says Pak will be happy if Cong returns to power

His comments came amid reports that Chaudhry Fawad Hussain, a former minister in Imran Khan's cabinet in Pakistan, shared a video featuring Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on his social media handle and praised him.

"Pakistan is crying because Congress is dying here. Pakistani leaders are praying for Congress. Pakistan is eager to make 'shehzada' (referring to Rahul Gandhi) the next prime minister. This is not surprising because we already know that Congress is Pakistan's 'mureed' (disciple). The partnership between Pakistan and Congress has been exposed. It shows the country's enemies want a weak government in India, not a strong one," Modi said, addressing a poll rally in Gujarat's Anand.
