woman volunteer contest?

l can win, sir. Just let..

Let me contest from Sitapur.

l'll definitely win.

l grew up there.

l was the students' union president.

Sir, please don't

forget me this time.

The Sitapur ticket..

That's the bloody

problem with politics.

Everyone treats it

like public transport.

Just flag it down..

and mount it!

l've worked very hard, sir.

And will continue to do so.

Let me.

You handled grandpa Rai

like a seasoned politician.

Then, why don't you reward your son?

Everything belongs to him anyway.

Father, let me select

the election candidates.

That's your uncle's prerogative.

That's why Prithvi..

But l won't let it go on like this.

So glad you're here.

lt's your birthday, Uncle.

Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Hello.

- How are you? - Hello.

Mr. Sakseria..

Hello, uncle.

Bless you.

- Hello.

Just got his tax problems

sorted out by the Chief Minister.

You never forget, Rajkumar..

- and now you'll say..

- Happy Birthday to you, sir.

Just saying happy birthday won't do.

Always at your service.

Have l ever disappointed you?

Please be seated.. quiet..

After winning three elections..

when the electorate rejected us..

in the last election..

we accepted their

decision with humility.

And we helped..

Mr. Ramnath Rai form a

coalition government..

supporting it from outside.

But, as you know..

in the last 18 months..

this government has

revealed it's true face.

Corruption has reached its zenith..

and the people are in agony.

We can't bear to see the

common man's pain any longer.

So, we have decided..

to withdraw our support for Mr.

Rai's coalition government.

Long live Rashtrawadi!

The people know..

that we aren't responsible..

for this political turmoil.

Father!

- Brother! - Father! - Brother!

Call the hospital! Emergency..

Get the car!

Hello.

Just as l handed in

the resignation, l heard.

- At least, if l hadn't resigned..

- Father-in-law..

..please!

lncrease the pressure.

Mr. Brij Gopal..

Blood pressure.

- Diastolic 140.

l came from

Benaras only to see you..

and here l hear about this crisis.

lt's serious, Uncle..

l'll see.

Blood pressure.

While the heart has been revived..

there's no movement in the body.

So, is he paralysed?

We'll have to wait for

the ECG reports for that.

The government has fallen and

fresh elections are certain.

But the leader of the

state's largest political party..

is fighting for his life.

- Without party

president Bhanu Pratap..

- what does the future hold

for the Rashtrawadi Party?

- State Hospital.

Aditi Priya. Star News.

Go ahead.

Before they try to pull a fast one..

we should take control of the party.
