A fluent Bengali speaker,Amar Singhs expulsion from the Samajwadi Party curiously has a Kerala connection. It was Joe Antony,one of the members of the SPs apex decision making body,the SP Central Parliamentary Board,from Kerala who carried all the paper clippings of Amar Singhs barbs against the party from Delhi to Lucknow for the hurriedly called meeting of the parliamentary board on his expulsion. Antony,incidentally,was made a member of the SP parliamentary board only recently,in fact on Amar Singhs birthday January 27.
