Reacting to Amit Shah's 'dogs and cats' remark, Congress leader Randeep Surjewala on Wednesday said the BJP chief using 'abusive language' reflects the language of a leader who has lost the battle even before it started.

"In our culture, a man and his character are known by the phraseology he depicts and states, manner in which Amit Shah used abusive language, calling entire opposition animals and names, reflects that it is language of a leader who's lost the battle even before it started," Surjewala was quoted as saying by ANI.

Earlier during the day, Amit Shah launched a scathing attack on so-called Opposition unity stating that Prime Minister Narendra Modi had spooked ‘cats, dogs, snakes and mongoose to unite’.

Shah made the stinging remark to take a jibe at the Congress and other Opposition parties which have been planning to fight together to counter the BJP in the next year Lok Sabha elections.

He made stinging comments against the Opposition parties by equating them to 'snakes', 'mongoose', 'dogs' and 'cats'.

He also accused the Opposition of not allowing the Budget session of Parliament to function. The session concluded today.

He further said: “This is not the Golden Age of the Bharatiya Janata Party, the golden era of BJP will come when in West Bengal and Odisha BJP governments will be formed.”

During his speech, he insisted that the Modi government had done a lot for all sections of the society and that the BJP will seek to win the 2019 polls on the basis of work done rather than by making "hollow assurances".

"Rahul Gandhi and others are saying that we are demolishing reservation for SCs and STs. We are in no way demolishing the reservation (policy)," Shah said in his address on the occasion of the BJP's 38th Foundation Day.

He went on to add, "Rahul and (NCP chief Sharad) Pawar, listen. BJP will never end the reservation policy. And even if you want to end the reservation, BJP will never allow it." The BJP president's remarks came in the backdrop of the recent controversy and agitation after a Supreme Court ruling regarding the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, which is seen by many as dilution of the law.
