Mangal Pandey accuses Nitish of allotting small ground for Narendra Modi’s rally

 

Patna,(BiharTimes): The Bharatiya Janata Party on Sunday accused the Nitish Kumar government of allotting small ground for its prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi’s rally in Muzaffarpur on March 3.
In a statement the Bihar unit president of the BJP, Mangal Pandey, said that though the party demanded both the housing maidan and training ground of the Police Line the district administration had allotted only the former. The residential ground can accommodate only 15,000 to 20,000 crowd which would be much smaller for Modi’s speech, he added.
The party fears that there could be law and order problems due to limited capacity of the venue as the crowd may spill out.
He alleged that the Muzaffarpur district administration had deliberately alloted a small venue at the instance of the chief minister Nitish Kumar.
Mangal Pandey accused the chief minister of discriminating against the BJP over petty issues like allotment of venue for meet out of vengeance.
The BJP warned that the Nitish government would be squarely responsible if anything untoward happened during the March 3 rally.
