A word was also removed from comments made by opposition leader Ghulam Nabi Azad of the Congress.
It is rare for a Prime Minister's words to be deleted from parliamentary records but not unprecedented.
In 2018, some words were dropped from PM Modi's comments on Congress leader BK Hariprasad. He had used wordplay on Mr Hariprasad's initials, which was seen as derogatory.
In 2013, some words were expunged from then prime minister Manmohan Singh's comments in Rajya Sabha during a heated argument with then opposition leader Arun Jaitley. Some parts were removed from Mr Jaitley's remarks as well.
