Kolkata: Taking a dig at Mamata Banerjee over arresting BJP activist for posting a meme of her, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said that West Bengal Chief Minister should make an "ugly" painting of him which he will heartily receive and preserve for life.
In an election rally at Taki in Bashirhat Lok Sabha constituency, PM Modi said he would never lodge an FIR against the Trinamool Congress supremo for "bhaddi se bhaddi" (grotesque or ugly) painting she makes of him. He said, "I have heard you are an artist and your paintings were sold for crores of rupees in the name of Saradha and Narada scam.”
