HD Kumaraswamy: Media shows PM Modi as he gets makeup done to appear before camera; ignores opposition leaders

Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Monday took swipe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said he gets the makeup and waxing done to get a glow on his face before appearing in front of the camera.

JDU leader Kumaraswamy further alleged that the media only shows PM Modi’s face and does not give enough time to the Opposition leaders “as they don’t look good on camera.”

"Narendra Modi, before coming in front of people and camera in the morning does makeup and waxing to get a glow on his face...but in our case, we go out after washing our face and taking a bath in the morning. Our face doesn't look good on camera, so our media friends also don't like to show our faces, they only show Narendra Modi...," he said, reported news agency PTI.

Addressing a campaign rally in Bengaluru, Kumaraswamy said, “BJP leaders, wherever they go, they are not seeking vote for the candidates or looking at them (state leaders). They are seeking votes for the face of Narendra Modi."

"My government will be stable don't worry...I have your (public) blessings...let people say whatever they want, this government will be stable," he further added.
