Gearing up for 2014 Lok Sabha elections, Bihar's ruling JD(U) today held a meeting of its core committee to firm up the political strategy and to give "befitting" reply to opposition BJP which has been publicly criticising the government in which it was a partner.

All ministers, MPs, MLAs,MLCs and party office-bearers would participate in the July 7 meeting to discuss the future course of action, Singh added.

The meeting would discuss the party's programmes so that workers could propagate them among the people.

A senior state minister, on condition of anonymity, said the meeting deliberated on BJP's going ballistic against JD(U), with which it had shared power till 10 days ago, and decided to give a "befitting" reply to them.
"We will give feed back to party workers to make people aware of welfare work done by Nitish Kumar for them," a MP said.
