Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one of the leaders who do not hide their true self, Congress veteran Ghulam Nabi Azad said at a public event in Jammu on February 28.
Azad, while noting that he is at political loggerheads with the Prime Minister, said he respects the latter for his village-origin and tea-selling background.
"I like lot of things about many leaders. I'm from village and feel proud...Even our prime minister hails from village and used to sell tea," the former Rajya Sabha MP said.
"We are political rivals but I appreciate that he doesn't hide his true self. Those who do, are living in bubble," Azad further added.
