"Modi ji has come up with a new scheme-SCAM. The person who is in involved in scams, sees scams everywhere," Gandhi said while holding a joint rally with Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav in Uttar Pradesh`s Kanpur on Sunday.

"I will reply to Prime Minister Modi's SCAM remark. It's Seva (Service), Bahaduri (Courage), Shamta (Ability) and Modesty," he said while adding that the "Congress party abides by it."

Taking a further jibe at the Prime Minister, he said people of Uttar Pradesh will make the former realise how the demonetisation had affected them.
