Stirring up a controversy, BJP MP Janardan Mishra said that he should be approached only if an individual is accused of corruption for an amount exceeding Rs 15 lakh, as per a report in The Indian Express.
In a video that went viral online, the BJP MP from Madhya Pradesh’s Rewa is heard saying, “When people accuse a Sarpanch (village head) of corruption, I jokingly tell them that if corruption is up to Rs 15 lakh don’t come to me. Come only if it’s (corruption) beyond Rs 15 lakh.”
