Patna, 11/2: Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent criticism of dynasty politics evoked a below the belt response on Friday from RJD president Lalu Prasad who controls the party with the help of his wife and three children.
The former Bihar chief minister was asked about Modi’s remarks criticising dynasty politics in an interview earlier this week.
The PM had also praised Prasad’s arch rival Nitish Kumar, the current chief minister, for not bringing any family member into politics.
“Modi never had any children. Nitish has a son who is averse to politics. One can only pray that they are blessed with offspring who can carry forward their political legacy,” said the RJD leader, who has been known for pushing the boundaries of civility in public discourse, during a media interaction.
