'Thunderous jolt': PM Modi hits back at TMC’s 'jhalmuri' dig with 'chillies' barb
Prime Minister Modi playfully responded to opposition criticism about his unscheduled jhalmuri stop in West Bengal, stating the state will celebrate BJP's victory with sweets and the popular snack.
He suggested the TMC felt the "heat of chillies" from his brief break, while the TMC accused him of staging a "scripted drama" and humiliating an Adivasi leader.
