In response to a reporter's question on Pathan being seen along with Modi, Khurshid said though he had not been able to visit Gujarat because of a series of visits.

"As an observer of the election process, I am a little bit surprised that he (Modi) is having to pull out rabbits, seemingly so many live or dead rabbits out of the hat. Looks like a worried person," he said.

Pathan today shared the stage with Modi in the campaign rally of BJP in Kheda.
