Rich people are reaping govt benefits: Varun Gandhi

Sultanpur(UP), Sept 28: BJP MP Varun Gandhi on Sunday alleged that affluent persons were reaping benefits of government facilities whereas poor were deprived of them.

He expressed his views while distributing equipment to physically challenged people at Lambhua Bazar.

Varun alleged that in villages while rich people were having BPL cards, poor and needy were not even getting pension.

Saying that politics should not be done at the time of elections, but it should be done through service of the people, the BJP MP said a post was not necessary to serve the people.

While asserting that he was not concerned about the vote bank, Varun said the MP fund was of the people and they have full right to take account of it, he was merely a custodian.

He also distributed kits of Prime Minister Jan Dhan scheme in a programme organised by Bank of Baroda at Melawali Bagh.
