RJD Chief hits out at PM for Asaram picture

A day after JD (U) released a picture of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with jailed 'godman' Asaram Bapu, RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Tuesday (November 3) hit out at the Prime Minister. Yadav claimed that the BJP's rout was definite during the ongoing Bihar elections. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had too raised this issue at a rally in Darbhange where he questioned whether the Asaram photograph was the reason that PM Modi had "gone slow" on his tantric-video counter. Earlier, the BJP had taken a jibe at the Grand Alliance when a video surfaced allegedly showing Nitish Kumar hugging a tantric, who chanted 'Lalu Murdabad'.
