Pray to God that Nitish Kumar, PM Modi get children: Lalu Prasad jumps into 'parivarwad' row
India Today
Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has taken a dig at Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and PM Modi over the row on dynasty politics.
Taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has said he will pray to God that the two leaders get children to indulge in 'parivarwad'. This comes after PM Modi in an interview with news agency ANI slammed dynasty politics, calling it a threat to democracy.
Lalu Prasad said, "What can I do if Nitish Kumar and PM Modi don't have children? Nitish Kumar has a son but he is not fit for politics. What can I do? I pray to God that they get children so that they can indulge in 'Paravarwad'."
PM Modi on Wednesday said, "I am for the society. When I say fake socialism, it is 'parivarvad'. Do you see Lohia's family anywhere? He was a socialist; do you see the family of George Fernandes? He was also a Samajwadi. Nitish Babu, he is working with us, he is also a socialist. Do you see his family?"
"When a party is run for generations by a family, there's only dynasty, not dynamics. Starting from J&K, where there're two parties run by two separate families, you can see similar trend in Haryana, Jharkhand, UP and TN. Dynastic politics is biggest enemy of democracy," he said.
