Branding the 'Swabhiman' rally as an 'Apman rally', Lok Janshakti leader Chirag Paswan on Sunday took a dig at JDU's Nitish Kumar and RJD's Lalu Prasad Yadav and accused the parties of foregoing their 'so called' ideologies and theories for the 'greed of power'.
"Lalu use to say that it is a Swabhimaan rally and there should be no music and dance. But they are only insulting Bihar in front of the nation by organizing dramas and dance at the venue of the rally. Had Jayprakash Narayan and Lohia been alive today, they would be very upset to see their disciples run after power," Paswan told ANI.
Paswan also said that NDA is becoming stronger with the flop shows of Congress, JDU and RJD in Bihar.
"NDA is becoming more strong with their flop shows," he added.
Earlier, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar attacked Prime Minister Modi over his 'DNA jibe', saying that the former had insulted the state.
Also, RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav slammed Prime Minister Narendra Modi for abusing the Janata Parivar saying that he was 'frustrated' and had no other ploy left.
