JD(U) criticises Sharad Yadav for backing RJD and Congress

Janata Dal (United) on Thursday criticised senior party leader Sharad Yadav for backing Congress and Rashtriya Janata Dal.

Sharad Yadav is not happy with Bihar chief minister and party president Nitish Kumar after the latter joined hands with BJP and form a new government in the state.

JD(U) leader Sanjay Singh said Sharad Yadav is compromising with corruption by backing Lalu Prasad Yadav led RJD and Congress party.

Nitish had pulled out from the Grand Alliance over corruption allegations on former Bihar deputy chief minister Tejashwi Yadav in land–for-hotels case.

On Wednesday, Sharad Yadav’s close aide had said that the former was mulling to form a new party.

On this, Sharad Yadav justified on Thursday, saying that it is not true and whatever his aide had said was reflection of his emotions.
