Minister hears grievances in towel, video goes viral

Bhopal: A Chhattisgarh minister has once again landed him in a controversy for his “peculiar” dress sense.

A video showing Chhattisgarh minister for labour and sports Bhaiyalal Rajwade attending an official public grievance redressal programme in “bathrobe” has gone viral in social media inviting ridicules from several quarters. Mr Rajwade was seen hearing public grievances being merely draped in a red towel around his waist while covering his chest with a vest in the clip. The video also caught embarrassing faces of women who attended the programme. The minister was apparently holding the programme in his assembly constituency of Baikunthpur, where mercury soared to 44 degree Celsius in the past three days.

“Should have I gone naked for the occasion?” he shot back sparking a controversy.
