Day After Sporting Saffron Turban, 'Rebel' Congress Leader Ghulam Nabi Azad Praises PM Modi

on Sunday praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying he speaks frankly about his past as a tea-seller and does not try to hide his background from the world. Addressing a function by Gujjar Desh Charitable Trust here, the former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister said a person should be proud of his roots.

I admire several things about a number of leaders… I am from a village and I am proud of it. A big leader, our prime minister, says he is from a village, he used to sell tea. “We may have political differences, but at least he doesn’t hide his reality,” the opposition leader said.
