I am of the firm opinion that everything that has been written by Mr. Sinha is entirely in the party's and National interest, he said. In a series of posts on Twitter, Sinha referred to a dirty tricks department out to malign the senior leader and advised them to reply point to point with their arguments to Sinha's newspaper article instead of evading it.

Expectedly, motives are being ascribed to Mr. Sinha's observations... and we all know that the infamous and pervasive dirty tricks department is behind these dirty tricks. For those who are trying hard to sidetrack the issues raised by Yashwant Sinha..I want to say that you can have a difference of opinion. A democracy allows you to have one. But you should be able to rebut someone's views point by point, with strong and pointed arguments and not take recourse to evasive and general statements, he wrote.
