“Let the work go to hell. You have completely lost your manners. I am standing here and you are leaving this place. You have become arrogant. You have to listen to the people. You are speaking too much. You have an attitude of ‘Hitler-ship’ . If I have to do more work than you and your team, then what is the use of the SDM? You leave. I have said many times that you are under training, that’s why I am being a little lenient,” Rawat can be heard yelling in the mobile video.
