Accompanied with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Union Home Minister and senior BJP leader Amit Shah on October 11, 2022 reached socialist icon Jayaprakash Narayan’s birth place at his ancestral village Sitab Diara in Saran district, situated on the border of Bihar and U.P., and slammed ruling alliance party leaders Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad, without taking their names.
“The ruling party leaders of Bihar today are taking names of JP (Jayaprakash Narayan) but sitting in the lap of Congress party. JP had not done anything in his life for power but some people today are changing sides for power”, Mr Shah slammed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in a veiled reference.
“For power they discarded JP’s principles”, added Mr Shah.
