Bhopal, Oct 31 (PTI) Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Tuesday took a swipe at Congress leaders Digvijaya Singh and Kamal Nath, referring to them as “Sholay” film characters ‘Jai’ and ‘Veeru’, who he said were fighting between themselves over the distribution of plundered booty.
His criticism came days after Congress general secretary Randeep Surjewala equated Kamal Nath, who is party’s Madhya Pradesh unit president, and Digvijaya Singh, its Rajya Sabha member, with ‘Jai’ and ‘Veeru’ characters played by actors Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra, respectively, in the 1975 film.
Sources in the Congress said Digvijaya Singh and Kamal Nath are in Delhi on Tuesday to meet the party leadership.
