On Nitish Kumar's "Itna Bal Baccha" Dig At Lalu Yadav, Tejashwi's Advice | Read

Nitish Kumar teed up a new controversy on Sunday when he took a swipe at his former ally Lalu Yadav and his "many children". The family however chose to respond with love. "Some people claim everything these days. They appointed their wives when they were removed. Now, it is their children these days. Ab paida to bahut kar diya. Itna zyaada paida karna chahiye kisi ko, baal baccha? (Does anybody beget so many children?" asked Nitish Kumar, who was addressing an election rally in Katihar in favour of NDA's Lok Sabha nominee Dulal Chandra Goswami. Tejashwi Yadav, Lalu Yadav's son, asked if such personal remarks will benefit the people of Bihar. "He can say anything to us. Whatever he says is like a blessing for me... But the thing is, will such personal remarks benefit the people of Bihar... In elections, issues should be discussed... Who is writing such speeches for him? He should speak on education, employment and stopping migration," said Tejashwi Yadav, who was Nitish Kumar's No 2 in the government before Mr Kumar switched sides again - this time back to BJP.
