Socialist leader Sharad Yadav bid goodbye to Lutyen's Delhi after nearly four decades. He vacated his 7 Tughlaq Road residence of 22-years on Tuesday, ending a roller-coaster career in Delhi and also bringing to a close an era of socialist politics.
“I am only changing houses, not my politics,” were his parting words. Moments before the trucks carrying the family’s belongings trundled out of the house, he paused to speak to reporters, reminding them of his legacy.
He is hard of hearing and his daughter Subashini Raj Rao has to shout out the questions to him. However, the hearing impairment does not come in the way of clarity of thought.
