"I can't digest the fact that JD(U) has shaken hands with the Congress and both Nitish Kumar and Lalu Prasad sitting together in the lap of Congress, which symbolizes corruption and known for murder of democracy," the senior BJP leader told reporters.
The RJD's alliance with Congress was not surprising as the two parties have been together for a long time, but Nitish Kumar's alliance with the Congress goes against the grain of Jai Prakash Narayan and Ram Manohar Lohia's ethos, Naidu said
Apparently referring to public spat between the Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Bihar Chief Minister of late, Naidu chastized Nitish Kumar for his confrontationist attitude saying that the state government must have a mindset of cooperation with the Centre.
"It is necessary for the state government to cooperate with the Centre as without its cooperation development of states is not possible," Naidu said in a terse advice to Kumar.
