Irani, who is known to not hold back, responded on Monday by telling Chaturvedi that she does not have a 'Z' category security.  



         


Chaturvedi stated that she didn't know the internal workings of Home Ministry and went as per newspaper reports.     



Irani responded by questioning the Congress leader "why are you so interested in my security? Planning anything?"    



Chaturvedi responded by taking a swipe, saying that it was not worth her time.



"Dats more Rahulji's forte. Oh wait, losing Assam is. My bad. Have a good day," Irani hit back with a jibe.  



The Congress spokesperson retorted with another sarcastic remark. "Repeatedly losing and yet becoming a minister in the cabinet is your forte," she posted.
