On one hand, you wrote a letter to the Prime Minister asking for an inquiry against Nitish Kumar and on the other you talk about the return of Prabhunath Singh to the Samata Party. What explains it?
Nitish is a corrupt and greedy person. We have declared that if the charges we are levelling against him are found baseless, we will apologise to the entire nation and Nitish will be free to file a defamation case against us. But the Prime Minister must decide that when two MPs are writing a letter, he should order an inquiry and send Nitish to prison.
Both Nitish and Prabhunath Singh are claiming that if youapologise, your re-induction into the party is possible. Will you do that?
It is Nitish Kumar who is going to apologise to the nation, not us. The Samata Party is getting weaker by the day in Bihar. The party lost everywhere in the recent local elections. It is all because of Nitish Kumar. There is no question of going back to the party.
Do you hope for any justice from George Fernandes? You have not accused him of anything.
Nitish has always been blackmailing George Fernandes for his Nalanda seat. So George is a puppet. He does what Nitish wants him to do.
What are you going to do now? Will you join hands with Laloo Prasad and join the RJD?
Being in politics, I will have to go somewhere or the other. But at the moment, we will be demanding an inquiry against Nitish in the Parliament. If necessary, we will move the court.
