Amar claims life threat from Maya and Mulayam
TNN, Jul 5, 2010, 12.20am IST
LUCKNOW: National president of the recently launched Lok Manch (LM),
Amar Singh has claimed that he faces serious threat to his life from
UP chief minister Mayawati and his former boss, Samajwadi Party chief
Mulayam Singh Yadav.
In Lucknow on Sunday to inaugurate the state headquarters of Lok
Manch, Amar Singh said: "They cannot see me emerging as an independent
leader." The threat was not limited to his life alone. "If anything
happens to me, my family or my fellow leaders of Lok Manch then these
two leaders must be held directly responsible for it," Amar Singh said
while talking to mediapersons.
One doesn't know what is the basis of Amar's claim, but fellow
politicians in the state are taking it with a pinch of salt. One of
them even went up to the extent of saying that `Amar was most
threatened politician' -- obviously not in the true sense of words.
When asked to comment about Mulayam Singh Yadav's move to write to the
Centre for removing the security cover that is provided to him, Amar
Singh said: "Mulayam Singhji koi Bharat sarkar ke grih mantri to hain
nahi," (Mulayam is not the home minister of the central government).
About his stance on a separate Poorvanchal state, Singh said that now
on, only promising support to its formation will not do. He said Lok
Manch was all set to launch a "padyatra" starting December 1 next from
Allahabad to Gorakhpur to press for its demand for early formation of
the new state.
