RJD chief Lalu says ‘doors always open for Nitish’, depsite Bihar CM’s latest votle-face

Tejashwi joined Rahul Gandhi in his ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ on Friday and was seen driving Rahul Gandhi and other leaders in the lead jeep as the yatra made its way through Sasaram.Responding to Lalu Prasad’s remarks, the JD(U) asserted that there is no going back.”Lalu ji says the doors are still open. He should know that the famous padlock of Aligarh has been placed on the doors. Our leader, Nitish Kumar, has clearly said that whenever RJD has shared power with us, it has engaged in corruption. There is no question of going back,” said JD(U) chief spokesman and MLC Neeraj Kumar.Earlier in January, Nitish, who had reportedly gone into a sulk after not being named the convenor of INDIA, the Opposition bloc that took shape through his efforts, dumped the Mahagathbandhan in Bihar and the national coalition to form a new government with the support of the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).Putting to rest frenzied speculations around his future and that of the Mahagathbandhan in Bihar, Nitish resigned as chief minister on January 28, his second volte face in less than 18 months.The Nitish-led NDA government won the trust vote in the state assembly on February 12 after a total of 129 legislators voted in favour of the motion of confidence in the 243-member assembly.(With inputs from ANI and PTI)
