A day after revocation of the stringent NSA imposed against him, BJP leader Varun Gandhi attacked the Mayawati government saying there was lawlessness in Uttar Pradesh and farmers were not being treated well.

Addressing a rally in Dakshin Puranpur village, Gandhi alleged that anti-social elements have been going door-to-door in various parts of the region misbehaving with the people. "The poor in villages are being harassed by goons who go door-to-door threatening them. Farmers are not getting the Minimum Support Price for wheat," he said adding that he would work for "upholding the honour of the people."
