Lalu is a liar: Nitish

October 10, 2012 15:58

Apparently stung by Lalu Prasad's charge that he scuttled the special status demand for the state by his predecessor Rabri Devi, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today hit back saying that the RJD chief was being untruthful.

"It generally happens that people swear to speak only the truth ... however, he (Lalu) is an exception to the practice as he always swears to speak only lies," Kumar told a public meeting in Aurangabad during his 'Adhikar Yatra' to demand special status for Bihar.

Kumar alleged that the RJD supremo was repeating falsehoods and claimed that Rabri Devi's demand had fallen flat during NDA rule as she had presented the demand to the Centre without completing formalities at the state level.
