Speaking to reporters in Hyderabad, Singh said, "I had been in the Congress for forty years. I know what it (the action by Congress) means. One is saying a show-cause notice is issued, and another is saying he (Aiyar) has been expelled from primary membership. So don't go by what is appearing".
On Aiyar's controversial remark, Singh said a person would use the language only as well as he or she knows it ("Bhasha ka jitna gyan jisko hoga usi bhasha ka woh prayog karta hai").
