Controversy | Being a member of Lok Sabha, she was really disappointed when veteran actress Rekha's name was nominated for Rajya Sabha Seat. She commented "What has Rekha done to deserve an RS nomination? I am very disappointed with the recent Rajya Sabha nominations. I can understand Sachin Tendulkar's nomination because of his distinction in cricket. But look at the choices from arts and cinema. Just because the minimum nomination age is 30, it doesn't mean we have to take people who are 60. I have immense respect for Rekha, but what has she done of late to deserve that nomination?" After hearing this comment, Rekha was really annoyed by her. |
