Gamcha

BJP chief JP Nadda took on Chief Minster Mamata Banerjee today, alleging that Bengal's farmers have been left out of the benefits of Central schemes just because of her "ego". Draped in a traditional red "gamcha" (towel), the BJP chief said the people of Bengal will bid "tata" to her and her Trinamool Congress just after the assembly elections.

Pranab Mukherjee, who headed several key ministries before becoming President, used to walk 2 km barefoot while going to a village school in West Bengal's Birbhum district wearing a gamcha (traditional towel) during monsoon in the 1940s, his friend professor Amal Kumar Mukhopadhyay said.

Using a traditional cotton scarf or "gamcha" to cover his mouth and nose, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday interacted with Sarpanchs from across the nation via video conference.

Janata Dal (U) today alleged BJP was trying to "bribe" voters ahead of Bihar assembly polls by distributing sarees and 'gamchas' and his party along with Congress and constituents of Janata Parivar will take up the matter with the EC.

Salman Khan has sparked off a major trend of the houndstooth patterned gamcha that he sports in his latest movie, Ek Tha Tiger.
