I realise that, strutting around in power corridors for political coverage, a journalist becomes half a politician.

Having been a journalist for almost 20 years and then becoming a politician has definitely been an interesting and enriching experience for me.

I have always believed that what goes around comes around.

Misdeeds of a few players and certain people cannot and should not bring bad name to hundreds of players who participated in the I.P.L. with full honesty. The reputation of the I.P.L. cannot be tarnished by a few greedy individuals.

I don't do negative things.

I don't try to hurt people in any way, and I try to help out wherever I can.
