Rebel Janata Dal (United) leader Sharad Yadav on Sunday said the real JD-U is with him and he will prove it.
He said he would attend Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) rally in Patna and termed it a 'Mahagatbandhan' rally.
Talking to ANI, Yadav said, "I have been invited in the rally. The mahagatbandhan (grand alliance) is still intact and this is mahagatbandhan rally. Those who are asking to me to skip this rally, I would like to tell them that millions of people had put a stamp on mahagatbandhan. They should resign who have immorally snapped ties with mahagatbandhan. The real JD (U) is with Sharad Yadav. I will prove this."
However, another JD (U) leader K.C. Tyagi said the rally called by RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav is to cover up the corruption charges.
"This rally is to cover up the corruption allegation leveled against Lalu Yadav and his family. This rally does not have any political agenda or policy," Tyagi told ANI.
