Jharkhand Congress leader Irfan Ansari has landed himself in a controversey after promising to construct roads that would be smoother than Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut's cheeks.

In a self-recorded video, Ansari said, "I assure you that roads of Jamtara "will be smoother than the cheeks of film actress Kangana Ranaut. Construction of 14 world-class roads will begin soon."

He also said that such roads would be used by children from the tribal community and the youth in the state.

Earlier, Shiv Sena leader Gulabrao Patil sparked a row after he compared the smoothness of roads in Jalgaon to Hema Malini's cheeks. He said his statement was meant to accord respect to the actor-turned-politician.
