Lalu, Nitish are like 'bhule bisre geet': Ramkripal

December 13, 2014 16:49

Union Minister of State Ramkripal Yadav on Saturday said the coming together of RJD, JD(U) and the erstwhile 'Janata Parivar' will have no impact as people have "rejected" them after testing them for long.

"Its nothing but a futile attempt to protect their identity," the BJP leader told PTI when asked about the coming together of Janata Parivar to take on his party.

"People are well aware of their old records... What new things do they have to tell people... Nobody is going to be befooled by them anymore," he said.

Yadav, a close confidante of RJD chief Lalu Prasad, had defected to BJP and is now MOS in Narendra Modi Cabinet.

"Ye log ab bhule bisre geet ho gaye hai (These people have become like old and forgotten songs)," he said in an apparent dig at Lalu and senior JD(U) leader Nitish Kumar.
