Venkaiah Naidu advises Renuka Chowdhury to ‘lose weight’

Congress leader Renuka Chowdhury’s tenure as Rajya Sabha lawmaker came to an end on Wednesday. In her farewell speech, Chowdhury said, “He (Venkaiah Naidu) knows me from many kilos before. Sir, many people worry about my weight but in this job, you need to throw your weight around.” To which, the union minister responded, “My simple suggestion is, reduce your weight and make efforts to increase the weight of the party.” However, Chowdhury retorted saying, “Sir, the Congress is fine.”
