After a grand reception in Chennai , A Raja, who has been acquitted in 2G spectrum scam, has a bomb waiting for some stake holders.
Talking to India Today amidst receiving wishes from party leaders, Raja said, “Wait for my book. I will reveal many things. It will be approved by leader M Karunanidhi. Then see.”
He blamed the media, CAG and judiciary for giving the perception of scam to allocation of 2G spectrum .
“I followed national telecom policy and TRAI regulations. But, I don’t want to elaborate now. But, my book will rip everyone apart,” he added. When we asked if it would include Congress leaders like Manmohan Singh and P. Chidambaram whom, Raja claimed in the past knew about spectrum allocation, he said, “Book will cover everything.”
Raja and Kanimozhi were given a grand reception after they landed at the airport in Chennai around 10.40 am. Thousands of cadre had assembled to welcome them. From there, both came to take blessings of Karunanidhi. Describing that moment, Raja said, “It was emotional. Very affectionate moment. He held my hand. He smiled. I was moved. I became too emotional.”
Raja told us that he had been confident of winning this legal battle from the day one.
“My BP was same the day I went to prison. It’s the same now. No change at all because I knew the facts.” said Raja regretting the fact that his party DMK’s image was hit because of the scam.
“Seven years has sullied the image of DMK. Election result was affected. That was my only concern. For no fault DMK was implicated in this. We had to lose elections because of this. Now, everything will change as we have come out clean. The image will boost,” said Raja, who didn’t want to comment about RK Nagar bypolls.
Amidst reports of possible elevation of Raja, he said, “I am already in a good post in the party. When elections come I will decide on contesting and planning the way ahead.”
With murmurs of Stalin getting insecure about Raja and Kanimozhi’s resurgence, an angry Raja rubbished it. ” Why are you asking such questions to provoke. When I met Thalapathi he was emotional and affectionate. We are united, united and always united,” Raja said.
Also Raja refused to answer on using his Dalit card. After meeting cadre, all that a visibly tired Raja wanted was some rest after winning a long battle.
