Nitin Gadkari Shares Routine Behind 46-Kilogram Weight Loss After COVID
Union Minister Nitin Gadkari lost 46 kg, reducing his weight from 135 kg to 89 kg, following a lifestyle change after the COVID-19 pandemic. He attributes this transformation to adopting a disciplined routine, including waking up at 7 am and exercising for two to two-and-a-half hours daily despite a demanding schedule. Gadkari emphasized that the change reflects a broader focus on health and wellbeing, inspired by the loss of close friends during the pandemic, rather than a cosmetic goal.
