Congress general secretary and former Madhya Pradesh chief minister, Digvijay Singh today said that he has taken a conscious decision not to counter any statement made by Samajwadi Party general secretary, Amar Singh.
    
"I have taken this decision as I do not want to add unpleasantness to any situation," Singh said while talking informally to reporters.

He made this clear when asked about his comment on Singh's statement that although his party saved the government over the nuclear deal last year, the UPA was now rewarding those who were opposed to it then.
    
Asked about the appointment of Sudheendra Kulkarni as a member of railway committee, the Congress general secretary said that there were mercenary soldiers all over.

He said that such mercenary soldiers may exist even in the Congress, adding that they were there even in journalism.
