“Yeh bhai-bahan ki jori hai...ek ravana hai aur ek surpanakha..ek delhi mein baithen hain aur ek UP ki mukhyamantir hain’’ (It is a brother-sister pair..one is Ravana and the other is Surpanakha..one is sitting in Delhi and the other is the chief minister of UP), Varun said while addressing a public meeting on rising prices on Saturday in Uttar Pradesh’s Bulandshahar district, about 400 km from here.
Varun said that as long as Ravana (Pawar) and Surpanakha (Mayawati) were there, the prices of essential commodities would continue to skyrocket.
He also held Prime Minister Manmohan Singh “equally responsible” for the rising prices of food items.
“The present dispensation is not a government of the aam admi(common man) as it claims....its a government of some families,” Varun alleged further.
According to sources, the authorities in Lucknow have called for the tape of Varun’s speech in Bulandshahar. “We will go through the speech carefully to ascertain if it is objectionable...if it is found to be objectionable, appropriate action will be initiated against Varun,” said an official here.
