On Friday, BJP National Spokesperson Sambit Patra clapped back at Pakistan Minister Fawad Hussain Chaudhry on his recent tweet against PM Modi, asking the latter why 'Pakistan was so afraid of Modi?" 

Pakistan Minister Fawad Choudhry, in a tweet claimed that PM Modi has "lost balance" over the internal and external reactions he had received on the abrogation of Article 370, CAA and the "failing economy." The Pakistan Minister tried to make an "appeal" to the people of India saying that they "must defeat Modi madness". Responding to this tweet, Sambit Patra stated that Pakistan was worried because Modiji had "exposed" Pakistan on a number of issues.
