BJP MP from Arrah, R.K. Singh, on Tuesday hit back at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over his 'Bharatiya Jumla Party' remark and said that he has brought 'jungle raj-II' in the state by joining hands with RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav.

"Nitish Kumar has been totally discredited because he has now joined hands with those whom he had accused of bringing 'jungle raj' in Bihar," Singh told ANI here.

"Corruption exists from the lowest to the highest ranks. This feels like jungle raj-II. If this is the trailer and if such people come to power, then god save Bihar," he added.

The BJP has joined forces with Upendra Khuswaha's Rashtriya Lok Samata Party (RLSP), Ram Vilas Paswan's Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) and former chief minister Jitan Ram Ram Manjhi's Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) for the assembly elections in Bihar, scheduled to be held later this year.

The 243-seat Bihar assembly is set to go for a multi-phased election, probably between late October and early November.
