Prime Minister Narendra Modi government has ruled out ally Nitish Kumar’s demand of special status for Bihar. On the eve of the Budget 2024, Lalu Prasad Yadav’s Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) shared an official statement on microblogging site X (formerly Twitter) to take a swipe at the NDA ally.
“Bihar ko nahin milega Vishesh rajya ka darja (Bihar will not get special state status!)” the tweet by the RJD read. “Nitish Kumar and JDU can now comfortably enjoy power at the Centre and continue doing hypocritical politics on ‘special state status’!” the tweet added.
“बिहार को नहीं मिलेगा विशेष राज्य का दर्जा!”
– संसद में मोदी सरकार।नीतीश कुमार और JDU वाले अब आराम से केंद्र में सत्ता का रसास्वादन करते हुए ‘विशेष राज्य के दर्जे’ पर ढोंग की राजनीति करते रहें! pic.twitter.com/lpd8oIKEda
