"Only 30 to 40% of the funds coming from the government are spent on development works. The bad shape of roads in Uttar Pradesh are an evidence to this fact. Middlemen, leaders and officials together are misusing the hard earned money of the people", Varun Gandhi said at a public meeting in Kanhaipur bazar this afternoon.
Gandhi is expected to contest from here in the coming Lok Sabha elections
