Rajeev Chandrasekhar asks Siddaramaiah to hug Pak PM Imran Khan;Siddaramaiah replies 'I am not Modi'
Bengaluru: Former Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah on Sunday reminded Rajeev Chandrasekhar about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s trip to Pakistan and lunch with its then PM Nawaz Shareef, when Chandrasekhar tried to instigate Siddaramaiah by calling on him to hug Pakistan PM Imran Khan as it will also help him to become the favourite of Congress chief Rahul Gandhi.
Chandrasekhar retweeted a tweet by Pakistan PM Imran Khan wherein he remembered Tipu Sultan on his death anniversary and added that he admire him as he chose freedom and died fighting for it rather than live a life of enslavement. Chandrasekhar took a dig at Siddaramaiah and asked him to hug Khan to become the favourite of Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi like Navjot Singh Sidhu.
Replying to the tweet the former CM added that he was not like Narendra Modi to share Biryani with the PM of enemy country nor he was like Chandrasekhar to compromise on ethics to please his bosses.
“It is better to lead a life of Tipu Sultan than like a slave of your bosses like you” he added in the tweet that caught a lot of attention on the micro-blogging site.
