Varun removed as BJP’s star campaigner in UP polls

NEW DELHI (TIP): BJP MP Varun Gandhi is conspicuous by his absence in the Uttar Pradesh polls. His cold war with party chief Amit Shah has left him out of the list of star campaigners yet again.

Varun has not visited his own Lok Sabha constituency of Sultanpur after the announcement of the Assembly poll schedule, despite figuring in the party’s second list of campaigners for the third and fourth phase of polling; his constituency goes to polls on Monday.

In a move that has caused great embarrassment to the party, Varun delivered a lecture in Indore on Tuesday, where he questioned the Modi government’s outreach to farmers. He said the farmers continue to commit suicide.

He also criticised the government’s inability to do something substantial about absconding loan defaulter Vijay Mallya.
