Will remain in SP,says Azam Khan

At the same time,he made it clear that 8220;if at all I wish to desert the SP,I will head for the BSP to get the maximum benefit8221;. His condition would be that Mayawati clear a Maulana Ali Jauhar University at Rampur. 8220;But Mayawati can never issue this letter as the model code of conduct is in force.8221;

Khan accused the SP8217;s enemies of spreading canards about his integrity and loyalty 8220;to divert the issues raised by me8221;,adding that he knew who this person was.

Pointing out that Mulayam had promised to clarify ties with Kalyan in two-three days when they met in Delhi on March 19,Khan said he was still waiting for the party chief to get back.

He boycotted the meeting of the SP National Executive held on March 21. Khan said,8221;I had a clear understanding with Mulayam that I will attend the meeting only if a clarification is issued by the party over the Kalyan Singh factor8221;.

Denying that he wished to contest the LS election from Rampur,where the SP has fielded Jaya Prada,Khan said: 8220;Do you think that the party will decide the Rampur candidate without consulting me? Do I need anybody8217;s approval for contesting the Lok Sabha election either from Rampur or Moradabad?8221; He also claimed that his campaign against Kalyan had actually helped the SP ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.
