KOTULPUR: Mamata Banerjee , one of the most strident critics of Prime Minister Narendra Modi , said on Monday she wishes his fabled 56-inch chest doubles to 112 inches as she wants everybody to be in good health. "He has a good figure, I want it to get better; I will be happy if 56-inch becomes 112-inch. I want everybody to be in good health," she told an election rally here with a deadpan expression on her face.Known for pulling no punches against her political adversaries, least of all Modi, the West Bengal chief minister soon set aside the apparent nicety. "But he is cunning enough to know that drinking tea that has been repeatedly boiled is bad for health. He is not offering tea in claypot anymore," Banerjee said, referring to Modi's ' chaiwala ' background here in Bishnupur Lok Sabha constituency.
