Lalu mum on alliance with Congress

RJD supremo Lalu Prasad today refused to speak about alliance with Congress and other parties for the upcoming general elections but slammed Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) "for trivialising democracy".
Interacting with the reporters after returning from Delhi with wife Rabri Devi and younger son Tejaswi Pratap, Prasad refused to offer any comment on the outcome of his alliance talks with Congress President Sonia Gandhi and her son Rahul.
"I will not speak on the issue (alliance talks with Congress)....It is not appropriate for him to say anything on what has been discussed closed door," he told reporters.
The RJD supremo, however, maintained that his party will work closely with the Congress and LJP during the elections and go to the electorate to seek their blessings.

"It's for the people of Bihar to decide as to what they order us to do and what they expect from us," Prasad, who spent over two weeks in Delhi post incarceration in Ranchi jail in fodder scam, said.
"We will go to the people after 'Makar Sankranti..... let's see how it works out for us in the time to come," he said.
Prasad also sought to assuage LJP supremo Ramvilas Paswan, maintaining he had never uttered a bad word about the LJP leader who had met him during imprisonment to make the occasion an emotional one for him.
