The Kerala unit of Congress has put out an apology to the Christian community after the BJP flagged a post on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meeting with Pope Francis.

The state Congress unit had Sunday shared a photo from the PM's meeting with the Pope with the caption, "Finally, the Pope got a chance to meet God," connecting it with a recent remark of the PM.

"This tweet by the Congress equates Prime Minister Modi to Lord Jesus. This is absolutely uncalled for and is an insult to the Christian community, who revere Jesus. It is shameful that Congress has stopped to this level," said Union Minister and BJP leader George Kurian.
