Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal reacted to the comment. "It is very shameful. We strongly condemn comments aimed at any individual or any particular community. Priyanka Gandhi also belongs to Uttar Pradesh so she is also a 'bhaiya'", Kejriwal said. Captioning the video, meanwhile, Surya too hit out at Priyanka Gandhi, saying "Priyanka Gandhi ji comes to Uttar Pradesh and calls herself the 'daughter of UP', while in Punjab she claps at the disrespect of people from Bihar and UP", referring to Gandhi clapping after Channi's comment.
