Minister of State in PMO V Narayanasamy slammed the Gujarat Chief Minister and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Narendra Modi for his direct attack on Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and the Congress. Modi, while addressing the BJP's National Executive meet in New Delhi on Sunday called PM Manmohan a "night watchman" appointed by the UPA and Congress "termites".

"Narendra Modi doesn't know the political culture. It is unfortunate BJP leaders were climbing to be national leaders. Now they are trying to reach the state leaders for the sake of 2014 elections," Narayanasamy said.

Modi set the tone for the BJP ahead of the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, while launching a scathing attack on the Gandhis, and saying his party is the only alternative for "Congress' misrule at the Centre".

It was a snub for Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi from the United States when his keynote address at the Wharton India Economic Forum got cancelled. This came on a day when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) showered praise on the Gujarat Chief Minister at the party's National Executive meet.

The Wharton School forum said it fears polarising reactions if Modi is invited, after a group of professors and students at Wharton had protested at his invitation. Modi was scheduled to deliver that keynote address via video conference later this month.

The organisers have now said that a prominent Indian leader will delivering the address, whose name will be announced soon. The organising committee of the prestigious annual event apologised for putting the university and the Wharton School administration in a "difficult position".

Speculation over Gujarat Chief Minister Narender Modi being given a bigger role in the BJP at the national level grew further as he held a closed-door meeting with party president Rajnath Singh on Sunday.

Soon after the national council meeting of the party concluded, Modi drove to Rajnath Singh's residence and spent about an hour with him. Sources said Modi and Singh discussed the party's poll strategy in the coming months ahead of the 2014 general elections.

He is also reported to have discussed the proposed restructuring of the party after Singh assumed the charge as new president in Januray 2013. Sources indicate that Modi may be included in the BJP parliamentary board, which is the party's supreme decision making body.
