New Delhi, Nov 1 (IBNS): Congress leader Divya Spandana has landed into a controversy over her tweet on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's photograph at the inauguration of statue of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.

In the tweet, she targeted PM Modi, who is standing beside the huge statue and called him a "bird dropping."

In reaction, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) posted that: "values of the Congress are dropping."

The party also slammed Congress President Rahul Gandhi for Divya Spandana's tweet.

Even the Congress party also disapproved the comment.

However, an unfazed Divya replied to the BJP as: "When you’re done huffing & puffing take a breath & hold a mirror to yourselves. My views are mine. I don’t give two hoots about yours. I’m not going to clarify what I meant and what I didn’t cos you don’t deserve one."

This is the second time in a month that Divya Spandana has been in the news in controversial circumstances.
