The Lok Janshakti Party, a constituent of the ruling NDA, on Sunday criticised leaders of the opposition Grand Alliance in Bihar for visiting Ranchi to discuss seat-sharing with a tainted politician. LJP parliamentary board chairman Chirag Paswan said it was “ironical” that senior leaders of the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ were “making a beeline to meet a person, convicted for corruption.” “Jail ke raaste se sarkaar banana chah rahe hain” (they want to gain power via jail), he said. He, however, did not mention Mr. Prasad or his party by name. The young LJP MP is the son of party founder and Union Minister Ram Vilas PaswanPaswans party on issues like Ayodhya and triple talaq.
