New Delhi, January 20: In an apparent ridicule of Mulayam Singh Yadav’s ‘anti-English stand’, Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh today said had the party chief been so then his children would not have studied abroad.
“I am writing my blog in Hindi so that my leader Mulayam Singh Yadav can read it himself. An earlier blog posting of mine, which was written in English and posted on computer had been given an anti-Mulayam flavour by some people, even though I had only mentioned him and his family in a positive light,” Singh wrote in his blog today.
He further said, “Netaji (Mulayam) is against English being given a compulsory status, and favours Hindi and other Indian languages.”
Had he (Mulayam) been anti-English, then children of his family would not have gone abroad to study, he quipped.
