Weighty issue

BJP President Amit Shah lauded his contribution to the party and his years of struggle, including the 19 months he spent in jail during the Emergency

While unveiling a compilation of Finance Minister Arun Jaitley’s blog posts and speeches, Bharatiya Janata Party President Amit Shah lauded his contribution to the party and his years of struggle, including the 19 months he spent in jail during the Emergency. Shah said Jaitley spent that time with his usual aplomb — and the result? He was 10 kg heavier when he got out of jail.
