“He (Praful Patel) is welcome to file a case. In fact, in some ways, I will be happy if he does, because then at least the nation will get a chance to debate issues that will come into a public forum, I will place all such records then,” said Mr Rai, whose new book Not Just An Accountant will be launched Wednesday
