Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh: Former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh today took a dig at senior Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan for writing a letter to the UN after Dadri mob killing incident, asking him whether he was ready to go to the US again where he was once disrobed during frisking at the JFK airport.
"Khan was frisked threadbare at JFK airport. Is he ready to go to US again, where the UN office is situated and get disrobed again?" Mr Singh told reporters after paying obeisance at Vindhyachal temple.
Mr Singh, however, refused to comment further on the minister, saying he was a leader of big stature.
"Last time, he got me and Jaya Prada expelled from the party. God knows what will happen this time. I may be expelled from world," he claimed.
Commenting on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said, "When Indo-US nuclear pact was signed during the UPA government, we were criticised. Now Modi is doing the same thing and he is being praised."
Earlier, the former Samajwadi Party (SP) leader inaugurated a day-long community kitchen. He was accompanied by former SP MP Jaya Prada and film producer Boney Kapoor.
A 52-year-old man was killed by a mob attack in Uttar Pradesh's Dadri for allegedly eating beef on September 28 leading to nationwide condemnation.
