A day after the announcement of the Opposition meet on June 23, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav said on Thursday that the way his father Lalu Prasad stopped the rath (chariot) of Lal Krishna Advani in Bihar, the Opposition parties led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar will stop the rath of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2024.
It was in 1990 that Lalu Prasad, the then Chief Minister of Bihar, stopped Mr. Advani’s Rath Yatra in Sitamarhi, citing threat to communal harmony, and ordered his arrest. The yatra was to culminate in Ayodhya.
“We all know very well the conspiracies against us but let me say that the way Laluji stopped the rath of Advaniji in Bihar, now the Mahagathbandhan government led by Nitishji will stop the rath of Narendra Modiji in 2024 [Lok Sabha election],“ Mr. Yadav said at a weavers’ cooperative union function here.
