BJP youth wing leader Bhavtosh Gurjar filed the case in the CJM court, seeking action against Gandhi under IPC section 200 (attempt to use as true any such declaration, knowing the same to be false).
Gandhi, while kicking off Congress` election campaign in UP on November 14 had said, "People of UP are appreciated for their hard work wherever they go in search of job...How long will you beg in Maharashtra for work ?, How long will you work as labourer in Punjab?"
