Virat married in Italy... not a patriot: BJP MLA

Guna: A BJP legislator from Madhya Pradesh has questioned the patriotism of Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli for preferring Italy over India to get married to Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma. The legislator from Guna, Panna Lal Shakya, told a gathering: "Virat earned money in India... But he didn't find any place to marry in the country. Is Hindustan untouchable?"

He went on to add, "Lord Rama, Lord Krishna, Vikramaditya, Yudhishthir got married on this land. You all must have got married here. None of us goes to a foreign country to get married ... (Kohli) earned money here and spent billions there (Italy)... (he) doesn't have any respect for the country. This proves he is not a patriot."
Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma got married at a private ceremony in Tuscany, Italy, last week.
