Krishan Bedi must talk responsibly: Capt. Abhimanyu

Haryana Finance Minister Captain Abhimanyu on Tuesday asked his Cabinet colleague Krishan Kumar Bedi, who was caught on camera abusing an official, to talk in a responsible manner.

"Anyone, who is holding a responsible position in the society as well as in the state, must talk responsibly. I expect everybody, including my colleague in the Cabinet, to be more responsible with what we speak," Abhimanyu told ANI.

Bedi, who is Haryana's Minister of Social Justice and Empowerment, stoked a controversy by publically abusing an official during a meeting in Yamunanagar yesterday.
