When Smriti Irani Embarrassed Purandeshwari..

Former union minister and presently Bharatiya Janata Party leader Daggubati Purandeshwari had to face embarrassing moments when she was forced to translate the speech of Union Minister for Human Resources Development Smriti Irani at Vijayawada a couple of days ago.

Smriti was in Vijayawada to address the people as part of Vikas Parv (Development celebrations.

Compared to Smriti, Purandeshwari is quite senior in politics and she had held the same portfolio which Smriti is holding now, when she was in the UPA.

Naturally, Purandeshwari, who had commanded a lot of respect during the UPA regime as daughter of N T Ram Rao had to feel a lot of inconvenience when she was reduced to the level of a translator in the NDA regime.

What was more embarrassing for Purandeshwari was that she had to translate the statements of Smriti criticising the Congress party and the previous UPA government in harsh words; especially the neglect of higher education in the country. In a way, Purandeshwari was forced to criticise her own role in the UPA government.

And what was worse, Smriti was all praise for AP Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for his efficient government. And Purandeshwari had no choice but to translate the same sentences verbatim praising Naidu, whom she hates the most. What a tragedy!
