Breaking his silence, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today said there was a conspiracy behind the midday meal tragedy in a Chapra school and alleged BJP and RJD had a "secret understanding" to derive political mileage from the incident.
"The Forensic Scicence Laboratory, which highlights the presence of pesticide in the miday meal, has confirmed our apprehensions about a conspiracy behind the midday meal tragedy at a school in Saran last week", Kumar was quoted by state Janata Dal (U) spokesman Rajeev Ranjan as telling a meeting of party MPs, MLAs and office-bearers as part of Mission 2014 Lok Sabha elections.
The Chief Minister charged "an understanding between BJP and RJD was very much visible both after Bodhgaya blasts and Chapra midday meal tragedy" as the two parties had called bandhs on the same after the two incidents.
