– PM Modi held a rally in Pilibhit, but Maneka and Varun Gandhi remained missing.

Pilibhit Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently addressed a big rally in Pilibhit. On this occasion, all the BJP and NDA leaders of the state including Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath were present. But Maneka and Varun Gandhi were not seen anywhere. BJP sources say that the party is unhappy with the comments made by Varun Gandhi for the last several years. He had expressed opinions contrary to the party on many matters including the farmers' movement. It is being said that Varun Gandhi and Maneka Gandhi did not receive invitation for the Pilibhit rally. Let us tell you that Jitin Prasad, who became a candidate from here, is the Minister of Public Works Department in the UP Government. After getting the ticket, he had also said that one should not speak contrary to the party line. It was believed that he was referring to Varun Gandhi, although he did not take anyone's name.
Generally, seats like Pilibhit and Ghaziabad have been strongholds of BJP. Still, the reason for PM Modi himself reaching here was to quell the resentment at the local level. PM Modi had reached Pilibhit for a rally for the first time in 10 years. By holding a rally from here, he wanted to cover both Bareilly and Pilibhit seats. This was the reason that just as sitting MP VK Singh was standing next to PM Modi during the road show in Ghaziabad, Bareilly MP Santosh Gangwar was also on the stage in the Pilibhit rally. But Pilibhit MP Varun Gandhi was not present, by cutting whose ticket this time Jitin Prasad got the opportunity. Not only this, his mother Maneka Gandhi was also not on the stage, she has also been an MP from Pilibhit.
