"Now Congress has kicked on their (JD(U)) back and is aligning with Lalu. History will not forgive Nitish Kumar for betraying mandate and breaking (ties) with BJP," BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi tweeted today.
"For the last 6 months Nitish Kumar was courting Cong, even going to Congress head-quaters to see off FM (P Chidambaram), praising Shahzada, taking certificate of secularism from PM ," he said taking a dig at Kumar. Though official confirmation is awaited, there have been reports of confabulations between Congress and RJD to firm up ties for the 2014 parliamentary elections.
