“Those who work in public life, their lives are very irregular. He needs to have a tough stomach,” Modi was quoted as saying by Being Fit and Fine. “For 35 years, I had to seek food and ate whatever I got. I never asked people to cook something special for me.
I like Khichdi very much. But then, I eat whatever I get. I want my health to be such that it won’t be a burden for the nation. Till my last breath I want to remain a healthy human being.”
