I never joined any political party in my life. As far as Jan Suraaj is concerned, its members are approaching retired police officers like me but I did not go there to join Jan Suraaj. When I did not join Jan Suraaj, how could they include my name and also publish the same in newspapers. Such things are not acceptable.”
“I just returned from HAJ and as I am a Haji, I have no interest in politics. I am spending time with my family. I don’t know how the team of Prashant Kishor included my name in Jan Suraaj without my permission. Such a thing is attributed to cheating with me. I condemn it,” Monin added.
