Attacking the BJP, RJD chief Lalu Prasad on Sunday said saying that those who have nothing to do with Lord Ram have been repeatedly using his for their vested interests.

"They have nothing to do with Lord Ram but repeadly using name of Ram for vested interest," he said, without naming the BJP, at Hindu saint Morari Bapu's Ram Katha here.

Attending the Ram Katha on the saint's invitation, the Rashtriya Janata Dal chief lauded the Hindu deity.

"Ram's story is our legacy and part of age old culture," he said.

He also termed Morari Bapu as an honest saint." I usually keep distance from saints but Morari Bapu is a real saint, I respect him," he said, also thanking the saint for gifting him his trademark piece of black cloth to save and protect him from bad omens.
