Former SP leader Amar Singh has said that he has not applied for re-entry into the party headed by Mulayam Singh and his meetings with the SP supremo were for personal reasons.
“There is no application on my behalf pending before the Samajwadi Party Parliamentary Board for re-entry,” Mr. Amar Singh told India TV on ‘Aaj ki Baat’ show according to a press release issued by the channel.
He said he had gone to Saifai at the invitation of Mr. Mulayam Singh and no political angle should be seen in this visit.
“I had gone to Saifai [Mulayam Singh’s hometown] to attend a social programme and it is wrong to say that I insisted on sitting near Mulayam Singh ji in his car. There were speeches by Ramgopal ji [party general secretary] and myself, and people can also say that I grabbed the mike. There is no need to rake up such controversies.”
