Prime Minister Narendra Modi is "matchless" and cannot be compared with Jawaharlal Nehru, as he was elected unanimously to lead his party, unlike the Congress leader who got zero votes despite Mahatma Gandhi's support, BJP leader Sudhanshu Trivedi said in the Rajya Sabha on Friday.
Mr. Trivedi sought to counter opposition assertions that Mr. Modi cannot equal the achievements of Nehru, saying Modi is "atulniya" (matchless) and there is a vast difference between his approach to dealing with issues facing the nation and the one adopted by the first prime minister.

"The opposition keeps asserting that Nehru cannot be compared with Modi. I also believe that there can be no comparison," he said.
"Modi ji Nehru ji kay tulna me ek atulniya PM hain aur unhone yeah atulniya uplabdhi haasil ki hai (Modi is matchless and cannot be compared to Nehru. Modi has matchless achievements)," he said.
Nehru, he said, came from an affluent background, while Mr. Modi came from a very humble family.
"Woh jawaharat ke lal the, aur Modi ji gudri ke lal the," he said.
