Patna,(BiharTimes): Initially refusing to comment on Lalu Prasad Yadav supporting chief minister Nitish Kumar’s candidature for the post of prime minister LJP leader and Union Food and Consumer Affairs Minister Ram Vilas Paswan on Thursday described the development as ‘frivolous’.

To a pointed question on Nitish being a PM material Ram Vilas said he did not wish to comment on it as it is a frivolous question.

The Union Minister, however, said that nobody was stopping one from projecting oneself as PM candidate.

He said that Nitish had been given mandate to make Bihar a crime-free state, but what is happening in the state. Murder is taking place everyday. Even police officials are getting killed.
