According to the contractor, Vajpayee owed him a remaining balance of Rs 70,550, which he was unwilling to pay out of a total agreed-upon sum of Rs 4,25,000, despite repeated requests.

Vajpayee, in his note, stated that the waitress hired during the marriage ceremony was a Muslim and that’s why he won’t pay the money.

Madanlal sent a long note to the catering contractor seeking details of the caste and religion of the waiter, as stated by the complainant. In the note, Vajpayee mentioned that he would settle the remaining balance only after the contractor discloses the name and religion of the waitresses.

The police have registered a case under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and are investigating the matter. Inspector Shivmangal promised the contractor of taking strict action against the accused, if found guilty.
