Training his guns on Modi and his close aide Amit Shah, whom the RJD chief described as the Gujarat Chief Minister's “General Manager for communalising society”, Lalu said, “He (Shah) is spoiling the whole atmosphere. He is ... currently their warhorse here”.
“RSS, Modi and Amit Shah, who is working here (in Uttar Pradesh) are well-known for this and see the riots happened. People used to live here together but the riots happened... “Communal violence erupted in UP after Amit Shah was sent to handle the party's poll campaign here. He is spoiling the atmosphere of the state,” he alleged. He said, “The BJP is the country's enemy, we are BJP's enemy.”
“The powers, which were once propagating the rumour that Lord Ganesha is consuming milk, are trying to communalise the whole society and promote both external and internal divisions. Youths are the main victims of this,” he said. Lalu is considered a popular leader among the minority community and his party RJD had been in power in Bihar for 15 years largely on the basis of MY (Muslim-Yadav) combination.
The RJD chief said, “Divisive forces and those who want to occupy the seat of Hastinapur (Delhi) have targeted Hindi states.
“I had said at a rally in Patna that people have to decide whether the country will remain united or break in the 2014 contest,” he said.
