India, Oct. 22 -- Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Choudhary on Tuesday clarified that his recent comments were "misinterpreted" and were not aimed at Srinagar Member of Parliament Syed Aga Ruhullah Mehdi.

Choudhary said his statement made during a public event a day earlier, where he remarked that he did not know Ruhullah, was actually directed at a BJP candidate and not at the National Conference leader.
