Row over changing names: Vishwanath slams C.T. Ravi, Priyank Kharge
The Hindu
Says not good to speak derogatively about their personal habits during a public debate
Former minister and BJP MLC A.H. Vishwanath came down heavily on party colleague C.T. Ravi and Congress leader Priyank Kharge for dragging the names of former Prime Ministers Jawaharlal Nehru and A.B. Vajpayee in their political tirade and for speaking derogatively about their personal habits during a public debate over naming of government schemes. Showering fulsome praise on Nehru as the ‘pride of India’, Mr Vishwanath said he had ‘spent more years in jail’ during the freedom struggle than as ‘Prime Minister’ of free India.More Related News
