A day after he was expelled from the Samajwadi Party for six years for indulging in “anti-party activities”, Azam Khan urged the party leadership to reconsider the decision.
“In the interest of the organisation, I request the SP leadership to reconsider my expulsion,” he told reporters here on Monday.
Khan, who was SP’s Muslim face and one of its founder members, however, parried questions if he would withdraw his tirade against party general secretary Amar Singh and newly-elected Rampur MP Jaya Prada.
Khan, 60, was expelled from the party on grounds of anti-party activities and indiscipline, capping weeks of bitter feud in the top leadership.
