He will continue to serve the party till his last breath, Singh added.
The speculation about Singh’s future plans surfaced after he posted a video of a couple enjoying their retirement by visiting various places in the country on March 5.
“My Retirement Plans? Maybe. Why not? Jai Siya Ram,” he had written on X, triggering speculation that he was hinting at his retirement from active politics.
Singh said he has only requested the Congress party not to consider him for a third term in the Rajya Sabha after he retires as a sitting MP.
Responding to a query, Singh said, “Look, hype always happens. And you know where the hype comes from. It’s simple: I’ve requested my party that I don’t want to seek a third term after my second term ends”.
Singh said this doesn’t mean he won’t work for Congress anymore, but rather he will serve the party till his last breath.”The assignment of work to me depends on the party, its leadership, AICC and Madhya Pradesh Congress,” he told reporters.
Clarifying his stand, Singh said,”Look, this is just a funny thing. There are a couple from Odisha, retired bank managers, who posted a video of their trip across the country. I thought it was a strange idea, so I posted it on social media. But I don’t have any connection to it.”
He evaded a direct reply to a question on his stand in the event of the Congress asking him to continue in Rajya Sabha, calling it a hypothetical scenario.
Singh also emphasised that he has always been active in politics when asked about his announcement of a protest for farmers.
The Congress leader has written to PM Modi seeking the Geographical Indication or GI tag for Basmati rice produced in Madhya Pradesh, and warned that a delay in accepting the demand could lead to an agitation.
Singh served as the chief minister of Madhya Pradesh from 1993 to 2003.
