Lucknow, March 19: With the Lok Sabha Elections 2019 drawing closer, nasty political comments by leaders are taking over the campaign scene. A Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA from Uttar Pradesh has made another sexist remark, this time against Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati. BJP MLA Surendra Narayan Singh on Tuesday said that Mayawati gets regular facials done and that she colours her hair to look young "even at the age of 60 years". 'Pappu Ki Pappi': Union Minister Mahesh Sharma Makes Offensive Remarks Against Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Mamata Banerjee; Watch Video

"Mayawati ji khud roz facial karwati hain, vo kya humare neta ko kya shaukeen kahengi. Baal paka hua hai aur rangeen karwake ke aaj bhi apne aap ko Mayawati ji jawan saabit karti hain, 60 varsh umar ho gayi lekin sab baal kaale hain (Mayawati gets facial done every day, she can't cast aspersions on our leaders. She colours her hair and tries to prove herself young. She has turned 60 but her hair is all black)," Singh said.

Singh's remark comes a day after Union Minister Mahesh Sharma made objectionable remarks against Congress President Rahul Gandhi, his sister and General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi and West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

"I was sitting in Parliament one row being the PM. The way he (Rahul Gandhi) winked, even I was floored. Now the Pappu says he wants to become a PM. So now Mayawati, Akhilesh Yadav and now Pappu’s Pappi have also come. Wasn’t Priyanka a daughter of the nation before? Wasn’t she Congress’ daughter," Sharma was seen saying in a video being circulated on Monday.
