An MLA from Madhya Pradesh went on some kind of a rant against Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma for choosing Tuscany as their wedding venue and not India. As per a report on Indian Express, while inaugurating a ‘Skill India Centre’ a politician from the BJP – Panna Lal Shakya said the following amazing things –

Virat earned money in India… But he didn’t find any place to marry in the country. Is Hindustan untouchable? Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, Vikramaditya, Yudhishthir got married on this land. You all must get married here. None of us go to a foreign country to get married… He (Virat Kohli) earned money here and spent billions there (Italy)… (he) doesn’t have any respect for the country. This proves he is not a patriot.

He went on to call their wedding a ‘picnic’ which for reasons unknown has completely cracked me up!

After getting trained, you all should work here in the country. This would be the biggest national service. Otherwise, earn money and go to Italy to marry like Virat, enjoy picnic and come back.

Hahaha! “Enjoy picnic and come back!”

If you think minutely, then you will know that the dancers of Italy become millionaires here and you are taking country’s money there. Then what will you give to the country? Howsoever big one may be, he can’t become our ideal person. Our ideal person is one who is honest to the country and earns money through hard work.
