PATNA: RJD president Lalu Prasad on Tuesday claimed there was no chance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi returning to office and that INDIA bloc would form the next govt at the Centre.
“Modi gaye ab (Modi is gone now),” the former Bihar CM told media on Tuesday as he stepped out of his home to campaign for his eldest daughter Misa Bharti.
“We will soon know the results.He (Modi) claims to be an avatar rather than a biological being. He will no longer be in office. Our govt will be formed on June 4,” the RJD chief asserted.
Earlier, Lalu visited Emarat-e-Shariah and Khanqah Mujibia to seek support for his daughter who is contesting from Patliputra Lok Sabha seat for the third time in a direct fight with BJP’s Ram Kripal Yadav. In the past two elections too, she lost to Yadav by small margins.
Lalu visited the Muslim organisations setting aside PM Modi’s remark at an election rally that INDIA bloc’s functionaries were doing “mujra” (dance) for minority votes.
Accompanied by party leader Abdul Bari Siddiqui, Lalu visited several other Patna localities and held road shows.
Those campaigning for Misa included former CM Rabri Devi, her younger son and leader of opposition in assembly Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, and daughter Rohini Acharya, who also fought the LS polls from Saran this time.
On majority of the 40 Lok Sabha seats in Bihar, the INDIA bloc candidates are locked in a direct fight with NDA.
