Janata Dal (United) JDU chief slams Chirag Paswan

PATNA: After the split in the Lok Janshakti Party, the verbal war between Chirag Paswan and JDU national president RCP Singh has intensified.

RCP Singh on Monday lambasted Chirag Paswan and said that he should decide whether he is the son of a lion or he is an orphan.

Singh's comment came in the context of Chirag Paswan's statement where he claimed on Saturday that he is the son of a lion and he will fight against the present crisis as a lion. A day later, Chirag gave another statement where he declared himself as an orphan after losing control of the party.

"If Chirag is saying that Late Ram Vilas Paswan was a lion then Pashupati Kumar Paras is also the brother of a lion," Singh said.

The split in the Lok Janshakti Party happenned 10 days ago when Paras declared himself as the leader of the party in Parliament and also mentioned the support of 5 MPs to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. Paras was also elected president of the LJP after an executive committee meeting in Patna on Friday.

Sources have said that the separation between Chirag Paswan and Paras happened due to Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. (IANS)
