 "Lalu mocks 'fat' Amit Shah, asks where is black money")
Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief and former Bihar chief minister Lalu Prasad Yadav on Friday questioned BJP president Amit Shah on the government's promise to bring back black money and also to decrease inflation.
Lalu taunted Shah, and said the former is thinking of his own development and not the nation's.
"What does he have to do with Bihar's development? He is roaming around for his own development. What happened to the black money, inflation has increased again." Lalu told media here.
Shah was also mocked for getting trapped in the lift of the state guest house for nearly an hour in Patna.
"Amit Shah shouldn't have entered the Patna lift as Bihar lifts are not made to carry such fat people," Lalu told media here.
Shah and three other leaders were trapped in the lift for around 40 minutes late on Thursday night. He was rescued by the CRPF personnel who were part of Shah's Z+ security cover.
