“Ours is a movement aimed at cautioning people against the saazish (conspiracy) of the BJP”
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (United) on Tuesday took out processions across the State, urging people to be on guard against BJP's alleged politics of communalism.
In the State capital, JD(U) national president Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan and parliamentary board chief Upendra Kushwaha were among those who took part in ' Satarkata Evam Jagarukta March'.

"Ours is a movement aimed at cautioning people against the saazish (conspiracy) of the BJP.
"The BJP has devised a plan to sharpen communal divides so that a sizeable section of population gets galvanized in its favour and help it hold on to power without having accomplished anything while ruling the Centre," Mr. Kushwaha told reporters on the occasion.
The march commenced by paying tributes to Babasaheb Bhim Rao Ambedkar at his statue installed close to Patna High Court premises, from where thousands of JD(U) workers walked to the historic Gandhi Maidan, about a couple of kilometers away.
"There is no alternative to Nitish Kumar. He is the very axis of the entire opposition," said JD(U) workers here, who openly pitched for their leader as the next PM though the septuagenarian has asserted many times that he was "not in the race".
