Here's why Karnataka minister JC Madhuswamy is HD Revanna of BJP

Just like JD(S) leader HD Revanna, Karnataka's law and minor irrigation and water resources minister JC Madhuswamy is fond of holding a lemon on the move

Right from morning till night, JD(S) leader and former minister HD Revanna is known for doing things based on his superstitions and beliefs. He has become synonymous with lemon, which according to Hindu's beliefs, wards off bad luck and evil spirits. To have a fair and square competition, a BJP minister is reportedly doing the same.

Karnataka's law and minor irrigation and water resources minister JC Madhuswamy, who was in Kolar district to check the status of KC Valley pump house, was not exposed just for his rude behaviour towards women and farmers, but also for his 'superstition'.

The minister was seen holding a lemon and rolling it in his right hand. It is said that, carrying a lemon for any official or personal work can make the work flow smooth as lemon is good for warding off bad omen, according to few Hindu traditions.

The minister, who always sports traditional south Indian attire lungi, carries a lemon for his belief, which makes him HD Revanna of the BJP.
