A corruption case has been filed against 93 people, including the then Prime Minister and Chairman of the United Samajwadi Party, Madhav Kumar Nepal, on charges of misappropriation of limited concession land received by Patanjali Yoga Peeth and Ayurveda Company from the government. After the Authority filed a case against Nepal on Thursday, his party, the United Samajwadi Party, said that it was a political revenge and conspiracy by the party.

The party's secretariat meeting has decided to retaliate politically against the party and the president saying that there is political revenge and conspiracy.

The former Prime Minister of Nepal has also said that there is a political revenge on him. A brief conversation with President Nepal : 

You were accused of corruption in the Patanjali land case? 

I have not done any kind of corruption, I have not taken unfair advantage from anyone. No Minister has been instructed to do any improper act. If so, please submit proof. As far as an institution like Patanjali is concerned, no one can imagine any unfairness in a place with people like Swami Ramdev and Acharya Balakrishna. I have done nothing improper. All is a matter of law. 

Not a single piece of government land has been given. If there is anything above the limit, if it is not reasonable, all the land can be taken back. Based on that, it cannot be considered that any crime has been committed, the intention is bad. If a decision has been made by the Council of Ministers, it must have been passed and moved forward after all the ministers have looked at it through various processes. I don't know if there has been any harm to the nation, even if it has happened, such an unfair thing cannot be condoned.

When the authority took the statement, didn't they say that this/that paper didn't arrive?

I have done nothing wrong on my part. I never imagined that this would happen in an organization like Patanjali.

If the case is registered in a prejudicial manner, how likely is it that the Lalita Niwas case will arise again?

I must have been bullied. 

How did you get the case even if you didn't bully? 

Now let's see what happens.

You say I haven't committed any crime? And what charges did the authority register the case? 

Now what happened, I don't know that much. I also consult a legal practitioner. What is in the law, what documents came from various ministries at that time, who recommended what, who put loopholes, whether it was/was not addressed, I cannot say anything without understanding. 

You said that the decision was made for a good cause, so this case was registered in a biased manner?

I don't want to accuse anyone. I have not, nor should I, give orders for corruption out of any ill intention. I am opposed to such a thing.

The leader of your party, Rajendra Pandey, has said that a case has been registered under the direction of Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli, what is your opinion?

This is a simple matter. He (KP Sharma Oli) has been trying to end my political career from the beginning. Tried many times. He (Oli) is driven by revenge. 

A case was filed against you in Patanjali, what is your opinion about Giribandhu and Shera Darbar?

Now some say it out of revenge. They say that they raised such things when it happened to them. Let's see what happens next. But there is a court that sees everything. Nothing can be greater than justice. Nothing is greater than the truth. I am adamant about not being afraid, not being afraid. 

Your MP is now suspended. You are the party president, how is the upcoming journey?

Let's see now. I will face the process for that.
