Vaiko congratulates Nitish, Lalu

MDMK founder Vaiko today congratulated Nitish Kumar for his "epoch making" victory in the Bihar assembly polls, saying it had delivered a "mortal blow to the draconian Hindutva forces engineered by RSS."
"My heartiest congratulations to you for the Epoch making spectacular, commendable victory, which has paved a clear path, showing beacon light to protect secularism, the foundation of Indian democracy.
"Your electoral victory has delivered a mortal blow to the draconian Hindutva forces engineered by RSS," Vaiko said in a letter to Kumar, whose JD(U)-led Grand Alliance registered a thumping win against BJP in the polls, whose results were declared yesterday.

The Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam leader told Kumar that his statesmanship had triumphed giving tremendous confidence to the "progressive democratic forces all over India, particularly Tamil Nadu."
In a separate letter, Vaiko also lauded RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav for embracing Kumar to "demolish the vicious attempts of the Hindutva forces."
"You have proved your talented merit as a true disciple of Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Narayan. You will celebrate this Diwali with all jubilation," he said in the letter.
