Narendra Modi a chaiwala: Did 'utterly horrified' Mani Shankar Aiyar ever say that?

In his upcoming book, Mani Shankar Aiyar clarifies his 2014 election comments about Narendra Modi. Aiyar denies calling Modi a "chaiwala" or using his tea-selling background to discredit him as a prime ministerial candidate. He accuses Modi and the media of twisting his remarks, which he claims were sarcastic and focused on Modi's perceived lack of historical knowledge.
