Prime Minister Narendra Modi reportedly told a BJP parliamentary party whoever's son a person is, 'arrogance' will not be tolerated.
The sources said that although Modi did not mention names, the hint was towards the actions of Kailash Vijayvargiya's son Akash, who attacked a civic official with a cricket bat.
According to sources, Modi told the BJP parliamentary party meeting that 'whoever it may be, whoever's son he may be... such arrogance, misbehaviour cannot be tolerated'. 'Manmaani nahi chalegi,' he said.
Akash, an MLA, was released on bail after four days in judicial custody and both he and his father showed no remorse for Akash's actions.
Kailash Vijayvargiya is a BJP national general secretary and was in the meeting when Modi spoke.
The Prime Minister said that such incidents bring the party a bad name and are unacceptable. 'If somebody commits a mistake, there should be a sense of apology as well,' he said.
At the first parliamentary party meeting held after he led the BJP to a massive win in the recent Lok Sabha elections, Modi was felicitated by senior leaders.
Party chief Amit Shah and its working president J.P. Nadda were also felicitated, parliamentary affairs minister Pralhad Joshi told reporters.
