Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee subjects a Trinamool Congress worker with a fusillade of questions on his weight in a video from a meeting that is being shared widely online. “how has your MadhyaPradesh (tummy) grown so big?” CM #MamataBanerjee was caught worried about the health of her municipality leader who weighs 125 kgs yet admittedly eats pakoras every morning. The conversation is hilarious. The chairman tried hard to prove his workout abilities pic.twitter.com/hDZw3OFamQ
The worker was making a statement when the Chief Minister interrupted him and said: "The way your belly is growing, you could collapse any day. Are you unwell?"
The worker, not looking offended at the body-shaming, said he has "neither sugar, nor pressure" and that he is fit. He spent the next few moments trying hard to convince his party chief that he works out.
Mamata Banerjee was not letting it go. "There is definitely some problem... how can you have such a giant Madhya Pradesh," she said, using the state name as a pun for 'middle section'.
