PM Narendra Modi told Akshay Kumar that Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina sent him new types of sweets every year. “When Mamata didi found out, she also started sending me sweets once or twice a year,” he said
The interview was telecast a day after one of his sharpest attacks on Mamata Banerjee at a rally in West Bengal on Tuesday.
PM Modi went on to tell Akshay Kumar that Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina sent him new types of sweets every year. “Once Mamata didi found out, she also started sending me sweets once or twice a year,” he chuckled.
The remarks stood out a day after PM Modi said at a rally in Bengal’s Asansol: “Our didi, contesting a handful of seats, is dreaming of becoming Prime Minister. If the PM’s post could be auctioned, then the Congress and didi would come with whatever they have looted through corruption. Didi, yeh PM pad auction mein nahi hai jo Sharda, Narada ke paiso se kharida jaa sake (this post is not on auction that it can be bought from the money from Sharada and Narada). One needs the blessings of 130 crore Indians to get to the post.” The speech also featured another phrase he has used to attack the Chief Minister in these polls: “Speed-breaker didi“.
In his “non-political interaction” with the actor, the Prime Minister also responded to a question on whether he had friends in the opposition. “Yes, very good friends, we share meals too.”
He said when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat, he once had a friendly chat with Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad, which had the media wondering. “Ghulam Nabi Azad and I have had several chai sessions and people are surprised how an RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) person like me is friends with Azad,” he said.
I do not even understand how I ended up right here, but I
believed this put up was once good. I don’t realize who you
might be but certainly you’re going to a well-known blogger in the event you aren’t already.
Cheers!
