Rajpal Yadav says 'I need time more than sympathy' after release from Tihar Jail: ‘Time will bring out the truth’

‘Time is a very good judge’

Speaking to ANI, Yadav said, “I have always received sympathy from you all. That is why I am here. But more than sympathy, I need time. Time is a very good judge; it makes the right decisions. Whatever happens, time will bring out the full truth — separating milk from water, revealing what is pure. And I will always abide by the law of my country. Wherever and whenever the law directs, I will comply. I will always be present.”He further clarified that all legal aspects of the matter currently before the court will be handled by his lawyer.“Regarding the matter that is currently before the Honourable High Court, whatever legal questions arise, the proper response, with full facts and truth, will be given by our lawyer, Mr Bhaskar Upadhyay. I have entrusted him fully with staying in proper touch regarding the case,” he said.

Every day is a learning day. Every day is a new day,” he concluded.
