New Delhi: BJP leader Subramanian Swamy wants his party to ban western clothes for its ministers, asserting that they are a part of “foreign imposed slavishness” and are not “Indian climate friendly”.
Swamy, who is a nominated member of the Rajya Sabha, took to Twitter on ways to improve and enforce party discipline in the BJP.
“Western dress is a foreign imposed slavishness. BJP should make it of party discipline for ministers to wear Indian climate friendly clothes,” he tweeted.
In another tweet, Swamy cited Article 49 of the Indian Constitution to suggest a ban on alcoholic drinks.
He asked the BJP to make liquor ban a “part of party discipline”.
He said, “Article 49 of Constitution directs alcohol drinks be banned. While I am not for penal action, BJP should make as part of party discipline.”
In another tweet, he had said, “India is still slave to British imperialist imposition”.
Last year, Swamy had remarked that Indian ministers clad in western suits looked like waiters.
