 "Varanasi to be Modi's political graveyard: Lalu")
Taunting the decision of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to field its prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi from Varanasi Lok Sabha seat, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) president Lalu Prasad said it would prove to be a “political graveyard” for Modi.
“What do you think of Varanasi. It’s a completely secular place. Modi is going to be defeated there. It will prove to be his political graveyard,” Prasad said.
He also questioned why Modi was “fleeing from his own state”.
He has fled from Gujarat in search for a safe constituency,” added Prasad.
At a press conference on Sunday, the RJD chief said vested interests were spreading rumours that a couple of dissatisfied RJD candidates were thinking of returning Lok Sabha tickets.
He also lambasted media in this connection. “Whatever is reported in the media is on the directions of the owner and management of the media house. Journalists do what the owner or the management wants them to do,” said Prasad.
