“You shot an arrow of power at my brother like Lakshman.”
On losing the Dausa seat, Dr. Kirodilal Meena said that he begged for votes from door to door, but people’s hearts did not pan out. The murderers, posing as Meghnath, fired arrows of power at my brother like Laxman, the brother who supported me all his life, but when the opportunity came, he could not repay his debt due to some Jaichands. Where did strangers have the courage? I have always been beaten by my own people.
