"Nobody Can Scare Us, We Are Fearless": Pawan Khera
NDTV
Mr Khera said the Congress has been playing its role and will continue to do so fearlessly.
"Nobody can scare us, we are fearless" and will continue to protect democratic principles, Congress leader Pawan Khera said on Friday, a day after his arrest and interim bail in connection with an FIR over his alleged remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Mr Khera, who reached here to participate in the Congress' 85th plenary session earlier in the day after the high drama Thursday, also hit out at PM Modi's jibe at the Congress over 'Modi teri khabar khudegi' slogan purportedly raised against him, and said the prime minister should talk responsibly and discuss people's issues instead.
Asked whether he regretted the remarks over which he was arrested, Mr Khera alluded to a Hindi film song -- "Hum bolega to bologe ki bolta hai", and added that, "Is liye hum kuch nahi bolega (that is why I will not say anything)".
"Will speak when the time comes. A legal process is on and it is not proper to comment on it," he told a press conference on the sidelines of the plenary session here.
