Rewari: Sacked Border Security Force (BSF) constable who made headlines for posting videos on quality of food served to soldiers has decided to contest against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Tej Bahadur Yadav, a resident of Rewari, will be contesting from the Varanasi seat.
While attacking PM Modi over his promises of eradicating corruption from the country, Yadav said that he will campaign on the issue of corruption free India.
The former constable said that he has been preparing for elections from the past several months.
"Hundreds of people in Varanasi are in touch with me. I have also registered a name in the voter list of Varanasi," he said.
