Bharatiya Janata Party leader Janardan Mishra, a Member of Parliament from Madhya Pradesh’s Rewa constituency has again managed to grab the attention with a bizarre remark over the conservation of water in Rewa.  "Lands are running dry of water, it must be saved. Either eat gutka, consume liquor, smell thinner, sulesan (a kind of adhesive), or eat iodex but understand the importance of water," Janardan Mishra said during a water conservation workshop.

The workshop was organised at Rewa Krishnaraj Kapoor Auditorium in the district on Sunday. A video of the incident has gone viral on social media. According to the viral video, he further said, "If any government announces to waive the water tax then do tell them that we will pay the water tax and you may waive the rest of the taxes, including electricity bills." This is not the first time that Mishra has hit the headlines. He remained in the headline through his unexpected strange statements and activities. Recently, a video went viral in which he was spotted cleaning a toilet with his bare hands.

Earlier in February this year, Janardan Mishra while addressing a gathering in his constituency on the issue of cleanliness said that those who obstruct the cleanliness drive do not have the right to live. "Those who set dustbins on fire should be hanged. Those obstructing the work being done under the cleanliness drive conducted by the government do not have the right to live and should be hanged," Mishra said.

Mishra further requested people to make their contribution to the cleanliness drive as he said only the efforts made by Municipal Corporation and Government lead the district to the desired result.
