After July 16, he will continue to stay in Datia, Mishra said. In the process of addressing the crowd, emotions choked his voice and tears began to stream down his cheeks.
Mishra prepared for the by-poll for several days and started electioneering, but the BJP gave a ticket to Ashutosh instead of him. Afterwards, Mishra's supporters protested vehemently against the party for denying a ticket to him.
They blocked traffic and closed markets, so when he broke down in tears on the stage, his supporters, too, choked up.
The Congress says the BJP suffers from internal squabbling, but the audience can see every BJP leader standing together, he said.
But when Mishra's eyes welled up and tears began to trickle down his cheeks, Imarti Devi, sitting on the stage, continued to laughed.
Imarti Devi lost election twice. Both Mishra and Imarti Devi never see eye to eye.
Before the public meeting, Ashutosh filed nominations in the presence of Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, BJP's state unit president Hemant Khandelwal, state in charge Mahendra Singh, and Mishra.
