"The IQ of Gadkari must be tested for his temerity to make a comparison between Vivekanand and the fugitive don. It must be ascertained with whom Gadkari's IQ matches," Prasad told reporters in Patna.

The RJD supremo also asked the saffron party to explain what merit it found in Gadkari to make him its national president.

"What merits Gadkari has showcased that elevated him to the post of the BJP president?" Prasad asked.

He said the BJP should bear with him now and the consequences of his statements as the party has made him the national president.

Asked about Gadkari's fate, Prasad said, it was for the BJP leadership to decide.
