Prove I took even Rs 1, I will resign as MP: Kalmadi

New Delhi, February 20: Pained by reports of his alleged involvement in Commonwealth Games-related scam, former Organising Committee chairman Suresh Kalmadi today said he would resign as Member of Parliament in case any proof of him having taken even a single rupee surfaces.

“I can vouch that I have not gained financially even a single rupee out of these games and if proved otherwise I am prepared to step down as a Member of Parliament,” Kalmadi said in a statement.

“I am deeply pained and constrained at the malicious campaign going against me regarding Commonwealth Games 2010.

The stories going around are far from actual facts,” he said in the statement.
