For making the snide "underwear jibe" allegedly against film actor Jaya Prada, former SP leader Amar Singh Monday described his erstwhile party colleague Aazam Khan as "filth and muck" of Indian politics.
"Azam Khan is the filth and muck (gandgi) of Indian politics. He symbolises all the evils of the society," said former Rajya Sabha member Singh, who is considered as Jaya Prada's mentor in the north Indian politics.
Maintaining that it was "below dignity" for him to react to what Khan says, Singh, however, added, "Even in the last election he had distributed Jaya Prada's morphed pictures, besides launching a vicious propaganda against me and her."
Allegedly targeting the film actor in his rally at Rampur on Sunday, Khan had said he had realised only "in 17 days that she wears a khaki undwerwear."
