He was saying that when one of the students asked, How to become a big leader.? Kawasi Lakhma replies — “Bada neta banna hain to Collector, SP ka collar pakdo (If you want to become a big politician, grab the collars of the Collector and the Superintendent of Police)”.
After his comment, everyone around him started laughing while the student maintains a shy smile on the face. The video clip is of the Teachers Day, which is now widely spreading on Twitter.
When news agency ANI approached the Congress Leader asking the same, the MLA said — My statement has been misconstrued. Instead, I’d told them to serve people if they want to be leaders, fight for them at Collector offices.

After the clip of the minister, Kawasi Lakhma spread online, users on Twitter have started to trash him for his immature irresponsible advice to the future of India.
In this country, the interpretation of leadership needs to be changed – there ministers or any local political representative should be qualified by some basic qualities of Human being…don’t you think this is wrong when highly qualified officer is humiliated by such ministers..
