"The Congress is like the Aedes mosquito that bites people unawares, causing the killer dengue disease, while the RSS is like the Anopheles mosquito, which bites with a buzzing sound, causing the less dreaded malaria," he said.

Prasad said the Ayodhya verdict, which awarded two-thirds of the land to Hindus, had left the Muslims disappointed.

"The Congress has given nothing to anybody. Be it minorities or anybody else. It is now caught in a cobweb."

Prasad also said that both Congress and BJP were two sides of the same coin.

"Voting for the Congress will be like helping the BJP," he said.
