Ram Vilas asks Nitish why is he not exposing BJP leaders

Patna,(BiharTimes): Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) president and former Union minister Ram Vilas Paswan on Wednesday asked Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as to why is he not carrying out his threat to expose BJP leaders.

Talking to reporters here on Wednesday he wanted to know whether Nitish would have parted ways with BJP if he had less than 100 JD(U) MLAs in the Assembly.

BJP became communal only after JD(U) got 118 MLAs and was sure to save his government. Otherwise, the chief minister would not have jeopardize his government, he added.

Ram Vilas said that Nitish is not exposing the BJP leaders as he wants to keep the option open for any post-poll alliance.

The LJP leader asked is it a part of protocol to exhort a chief minister, who was criticized by the cross-section of political class for failure to control the riots, to play a national role? Whether Nitish has praised any other political leader as much as he did to Modi. 

“If Nitish is secular than he should have quit the post of railway minister as I did after the 2002 Gujarat riots,” Ram Vilas said.
