Karnataka Assembly Speaker KR Ramesh Kumar on Friday said that he "doesn't sleep with men" after he was asked about senior Congress leader KH Muniyappa's comments over their relationship. The Speaker's comment came after Congress leader KH Muniyappa's statement in February that his relationship with Kumar was akin to "a husband and wife".
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Friday took to Twitter to take a jibe at the Congress' announcement to postpone its special press conference to 1pm.
Taking to Twitter, BJP tweeted,''It seems Rahul Gandhi can't wake up in the morning. Anyway, it's better not to spread lies in the morning :).''
The Congress has hit out at the BJP after the party announced that BJP chief Amit Shah will contest from Gandhinagar, a seat held by veteran BJP leader LK Advani.
