On a day when Punjab Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi's helicopter was not allowed to take off from Chandigarh, due to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the state, the PM fired a taunt at the Congress.
PM Modi recalled an incident in which, he said, his helicopter was held up in Punjab because "Yuvraj (prince)" of the Congress was flying to Amritsar.
PM Modi often refers to Rahul Gandhi as "yuvraj".
PM Modi said he had gone to Punjab to campaign for the national election, after being named the BJP's presumptive Prime Minister, when the incident took place.
"I was named PM candidate. I had to visit Pathankot and Himachal to campaign. But my chopper was not allowed to fly to Pathankot because their yuvraj (prince) was also in Amritsar. He was only a Congress MP. The Congress has a habit of not allowing the opposition to work," PM Modi said at a rally in Jalandhar.
Earlier in the day, Punjab CM Channi said that he was not allowed to fly reportedly as a "no-fly zone" had been enforced due to the Prime Minister's visit.
A furious Channi said that he is not a terrorist, but a sitting CM who was stopped from flying t Hoshiarpur.

Gearing up for his 13th electoral battle.
Oldest candidate in this Punjab election.
Meet the grand old man of Punjab politics: 
Parkash Singh Badal.
Akali Dal patriarch, five-time chief minister.
He is now fighting his 13th Assembly election. He hopes to retain the Lambi seat for the sixth consecutive time. Badal has been representing the predominantly rural constituency since 1997.
An 11-time MLA, Badal started his political career in 1947 as the sarpanch of his native Badal village.
Born on December 8, 1927, Badal won his first Assembly poll as a Congress candidate in undivided Punjab in 1957.
He then switched to the Akali camp and lost the first election of the divided Punjab in 1967 to COngress candidate by a margin of 57 votes.
That was the only defeat Badal faced in his over seven decades of political life.
Apart from being CM for record 5 times, Badal also has the ​distinction of being Punjab's youngest and the oldest chief minister.
He first took oath as chief minister at the age of 42 in 1970, becoming the youngest Punjab CM.
In 2012, at the age of 84, Badal was sworn in as the oldest CM of the state. It was his fifth innings as CM.
But age is just a number for Parkash Singh Badal. Even at 94, he is on foot meeting people in his constituency and going door to door.

Just days ahead on Punjab Assembly elections, Enforcement Directorate has arrested Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi's nephew in an alleged case of illegal sand mining.
Bhupinder Singh Honey was arrested on Thursday evening after day-long questioning by the central agency in the sand mining case.
Last month ED had raided the CM's relative and had seized 10 crore in cash.
In a statement, the Enforcement Directorate had said "incriminating" documents related to the "illegal" sand mining and property transactions, mobile phones, gold worth more than ₹ 21 lakh, and a Rolex watch worth ₹ 12 lakh were also seized during the searches.
CM Channi had slammed the raids calling them Centre's pressure tactics ahead of polls.
Opposition parties have been linking Channi with the dealings of Honey which the CM has denied.
Punjab will vote for all 117 Assembly seats on February 20.

The Enforcement Directorate on Tuesday raided multiple locations in poll-bound Punjab, including premises of a relative of Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi, The raids were part of a money laundering probe against the 'sand mafia' and companies linked to alleged illegal sand mining, officials said.
They said at least 10-12 locations in the state including in Chandigarh and Mohali are being covered by the officials of the federal agency.
Premises linked to a person identified as Bhupinder Singh alias Honey are also being covered. He is stated to be a relative of CM Channi.
Reacting to raids that have come amid campaigning for the Assembly Elections next month, the chief minister termed them as pressure tactic by the central government.
"When there were polls in West Bengal, such attacks took place on Mamata Banerjee's relatives. Now, in the same pattern in Punjab, ED is trying to put pressure, give trouble. An attempt is being made to create all kinds of pressure," Channi alleged while interacting with reporters.
Opposition parties have earlier linked Channi with the dealings of Honey which the CM has denied.
Delhi Chief Minister and AAP national convenor Arvind Kejriwal attacked his Punjab counterpart over illegal sand mining following the ED raids.
"We have been repeatedly saying that in his (Channi) cabinet, there are people who are involved in illegal sand mining and Channi sahab himself is giving patronage to them," alleged Kejriwal whose Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) is among the main contenders in the Punjab polls.

Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday named party MP Bhagwant Mann as AAP's CM candidate for the upcoming Punjab Assembly Elections.
Announcing Mann's name, Kejriwal said that over 21 lakh people voted in AAP's public poll on CM candidate and 93% of them wanted Bhagwant Mann to be next CM of Punjab.
Two-time AAP MP from Punjab, Bhagwant Mann represents Sangrur Lok Sabha seat in Lok Sabha.
Mann started out as a stand-up comedian over 20 years ago before joining politics.
From a Sangrur village, Mann started his comedy career participating in youth festivals and inter-college competitions.
After gaining nationwide recognition in the Great Indian Laughter Challenge—a reality TV show, he dived into active politics with Manpreet Singh Badal’s erstwhile People’s Party of Punjab in 2011. He couldn’t win assembly seat from Lehragaga in 2012 but when he joined AAP in March 2014, there was no looking back.
Although Mann has had his fair share of controversies, his brilliant wit coupled with oratory skills makes him the quintessential crowd puller for AAP.

Amid ongoing infighting and power tussle in its Punjab unit, the Congress has made it apparent that Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi is the face of its campaign in the state.
The Congress has tweeted a video in which actor Sonu Sood says the "real chief minister is the one who does not have to tell he is the chief ministerial candidate".
The actor's video is followed by several clips of Channi taking part in various events and election rallies.
“The real chief minister, the real king is the one who has to forcibly brought to the chair and who does not have to struggle for it and does not have to state that I am CM candidate, I deserve it. He should be such a backbencher, who is brought from behind and told that you deserve it. Such a chief minister can bring change in the country," Sood says in the video.
Sonu Sood’s sister Malvika Sood, recently joined the Congress, is party's candidate from Moga.
The video is seen as a clear endorsement of Channi by Congress as the chief ministerial candidate of Punjab amid overt claims to the chair by its Punjab unit chief Navjot Singh Sidhu.
Interestingly, Sidhu is not seen in the 36-seconds-long clip.
Channi was made the CM after ouster of Captain Amarinder Singh amid a long-drawn power tussle with Sidhu.

With just about a month to polls, Punjab Congress chief Navjot Singh Sidhu dropped another truth bomb saying it is the people of Punjab who will decide who will be the Chief Minister and not the party high command.
The latest Sidhuism, a month before Punjab votes (On February 14), is likely to raise hackles in the Congress's Punjab unit and among senior leaders.
"People of Punjab will decide who will be the Chief Minister. Who told you that the (Congress) high command will make the CM?" Navjot Singh Sidhu, state Congress chief, asked as a counter-question.
"Do not have a false implication in your mind. People of Punjab will choose MLAs and they alone will decide who will be the Chief Minister," Sidhu underlined.
The Sidhu bombshell comes days after senior party leader Sunil Jakhar said that the Congress won't announce a Chief Minister face for the assembly elections. The party will contest the polls under a "joint leadership", Jakhar had said in the last week of December.
Sidhu's public utterances that are on most occasions at variance with the party position are fast becoming a recurring event.
The outspoken Congress leader has been relentless in criticism of his own party government in Punjab. Recently he has not spared even new Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi.
