No Third Front without Congress or BJP support: Paswan

Support of either Congress or BJP is a must if a Third Front has to emerge after the general elections next year, Lok Janshakti Party Chief Ram Vilas Paswan has said. With RJD supremo Lalu Prasad landing in jail in connection with the Fodder Scam, Paswan said there was a need for serious discussion among the current allies to decide on the future course ahead of the 2014 elections. LJP chief expressed interest in staying in alliance with Congress but the onus is on the ruling party to decide on their partners. Once an ally of the BJP-led NDA front, Paswan, a Rajya Sabha MP, claimed it was the demolition of the Babri Masjid which went against the party's prospects.
