New Delhi: In view of certain comments being made in social media criticizing Mr. Kuldip Nayar’s visit to Amritsar stating that he is campaigning for Arun Jaitly, lawyer N.D.Pancholi and Anil Sinha have claimed that they met him on Sunday evening, where Nayar purportedly clarified that his visit to Amritsar was private, where he did meet BJP candidate from there Arun Jaitly but he neither addressed any public meeting nor met the press nor made any public appeal.
He also clarified that when Barkha Dutt of NDTV met him in the hotel room where he was staying and requested for his bite, Mr. Nayar commented that BJP is a communal and divisive party and it would not be good for the country if BJP comes to power.
About Jaitley, however, he said that he has a good reputation, he is well read, he is best candidate, that he was with him imprisoned in Tihar jail during emergency and that he is a family member. Asked about his opinion on Narendra Mod, Nayar called him a “collateral damage” and used some other unpalatable remarks.
According to Pancholi and Sinha, NDTV did not broadcast those parts for reasons best known to them.
