Bihar's Independent MP Pappu Yadav, who suffered a shoe attack at a press conference in Delhi today, told NDTV that the man was also carrying a knife which has been handed to the police. "I had been receiving threats from several sadhus and sants," he told NDTV in an exclusive interview. "One sant made a public statement saying that if my parliamentary membership was not revoked, I should be burnt alive.
