New Delhi: The Vidarbha farmer's widow whose plight was highlighted by Congress General Secretary Rahul Gandhi in Parliament, has complained about the Congress led-government in Maharashtra to BJP's Rajnath Singh.

With Rahul Gandhi citing her example, Kalavati soon became the face of struggling widows of Vidharbha's suicide zone in Maharashtra where thousands of farmers have died in the last one decade.

Kalavati's grouse is that 4,000 other widows have not been given compensation like she was.

To the embarrassment of the Congress, the complaint was made to former BJP president Rajnath Singh who is now on a tour of Maharashtra to study and evaluate the plight of the farmers of Vidarbha.

Rahul has already hit the road in poll bound Uttar Pradesh to raise land acquisition policies of the Mayawati government. With Rahul's poster woman from Yavatmal complaining against the state's apathy, it could well be a beginning of another war of words between the Congress and the Opposition.
