Lucknow: Taking a swipe at PM Modi for his 'raincoat in bathroom' barb at Manmohan Singh, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi today said the PM was more interested in "peeping into bathrooms of people".

"PM Modi likes to read janampatri (horoscope), search Goo­gle and peep into the bath­rooms of people... but he is a failure as a PM," he said at a joint press meet with SP chief Akh­ilesh Yadav.

His comments come against the backdrop of the PM's remarks in Parliament that one should learn the art of "bath­ing with a raincoat on" from Singh as there was not a single taint on him despite so many scams having taken place during his regime. Modi had said in an election rally on Friday that BJP had a detailed dossier on the Congress leaders.
