New Delhi, May 11 : Senior Congress leader Arjun Singh, who is in the eye of a storm in the wake of his criticism of the party leadership on issues of loyalty, today said that he will remain loyal and committed to the members of the Gandhi family till he is alive.
“I would like to put it on record that when I met Pandit Jawahar Lal Nehru in March 1960, I pledged my total loyalty to him and his family,” he said in a statement issued to media.
“This was the commitment, which is an article of faith with me. For the past 48 years of my life, I have scrupulously adhered to it. I shall also do everything to maintain the loyalty and commitment to the remaining members of the family till I live,” he added.
