"I am not Vibhishan. I stay in Ayodhya and not Lanka. I will not set my own house on fire. I would prefer to go in exile than harming my party," Bharati, who arrived in New Delhi from Bhopal, en route to Bihar for campaigning, said.

Alleging that the 'dirty tricks department' of the Congress was eyeing Madhya Pradesh, she said, "Congress President Sonia Gandhi [Images] is hatching a conspiracy to impose President's rule in the state. They will never succeed. I will disappoint them."
