RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on May 14 claimed that he was getting "full support" from "uncle" Nitish Kumar, the JD(U) president who is a BJP ally, in his fight against the saffron party.
Mr. Yadav made the remark, in an obvious bid to drive a wedge between the newly realigned NDA partners, at a rally in Bihar's Madhubani district.
The RJD leader, who lost his job as Bihar Deputy CM as a result of Kumar's abrupt exit from INDIA bloc, said "chacha (uncle) may have been hijacked by the BJP. But he taught me the importance of driving out of power those whose ascent came in 2014. Deep down, he retains the sentiment".
