Amid strain in ties, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday accused the Janata Dal-United of denying it permission to hold a function of party chief Rajnath Singh in Patna on June 23.

The education department has denied permission to hold a function of BJP president Rajnath Singh in a local school, state party chief Mangal Pandey told reporters after a core committee meet at Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Modi's residence. He said Singh is scheduled to address BJP workers for which they had sought permission for Miller school ground.

"The same school ground was used by the JD-U for its Adhikar rally in November last year and permission is not given to alliance partner to hold function of its national president," he said and criticised behaviour of the party.
