If this post would have gone to ‘Behenji’ (Mayawati), then all her near ones and neighbours would have become MLCs.”He added, “I challenge all the candidates for the prime minister’s post in Opposition to work for 18 hours daily for eight days. I can guarantee you, after eight days we will have to get all of them admitted in the hospital.” Uttar Pradesh deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya was also present at the event.
