Union Minister Nitin Gadkari on Friday opened up about his experiences during the Covid pandemic and shared how he utilised that time.
While speaking at an event in Haryana, where he had gone to review the progress of the new Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, Nitin Gadkari said, “In Covid-19 time, I did two things – I started cooking at home and giving lectures through video conference.”
“I delivered many lectures online, which were uploaded on YouTube. Owing to huge viewership, YouTube now pays me Rs 4 lakh per month,” he added.
Recalling an incident from his past, the union minister of road transport and highways said that he once ordered the demolition of his father-in-law’s home without telling his wife.
“I was newly married,” Gadkari said, cracking up about the incident. “My father-in-law’s house was in the middle of the road. Without telling my wife, I had ordered the demolition of my father-in-law’s house.”
The minister added that officials informed him that he, too, has a house there and that it needed to be razed for constructing the road.
