If Netaji’s trust and affection is with Ramgopal, then I am also with him, said Samajwadi Party’s Rajya Sabha MP Amar Singh responding to the reinstatement of expelled senior leader and Rajya Sabha MP Ramgopal Yadav as the general secretary of the party.
The decision was taken following an order issued by the SP patriarch Mulayam Singh Yadav.
This is their party and thus they can expel or reinstate anybody anytime, added Amar Singh.
“This is their party, and they can expel or reinstate anybody anytime at their will. If Mulayam Singh’s affection and trust is with Ramgopal, then I am also with Ramgopal,” Singh told ANI.
He, however, said, “He (Ramgopal) had given a statement that he got Amar Singh expelled from the party, and could do it now too. I am ready to be expelled. I was expelled once and now I am ready to be expelled again. I will be waiting for my expulsion for the second time.”
According to a report by ANI, asked if Ramgopal’s inclusion had strengthened the camp of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav, he said: “This is for you to analyse. Whether I am in politics or not; I’m with this party or any other party; but I can neither leave nor forget Mulayam Singh. I cannot deprive myself of his affection, whether he is in power or not.”
