Lalu slams Nitish, says 'will never join hands with BJP like Bihar CM did'

RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav on Sunday said he would never join hands with the Bharatiya Janata Party as the latter spreads “communalism” in the country.

While addressing people in Siwan , Lalu attacked Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar, saying that he is a “falturam” and his career is finished forever.

The RJD supremo said come what may, he would never join hands with the BJP.

Lalu supported the statements of former vice-president Hamid Ansari’s affirmation of apprehension among the Muslim community in the country. The RJD supremo blamed Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying that the latter is trying to divide on communal lines. He said, “I will defeat Nitish and Modi within two months.”
