"Is BJP Alliance With Nitish Kumar Holy": Kumaraswamy Hits Out At PM Modi

Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy today ripped into Prime Minister Narendra Modi's remark that the opposition alliance is "adulterated" and contended that the BJP's choice of allies is far more questionable. In an extensive interview to NDTV, he also argued that many of the BJP's policies -- from farm loan waivers in Uttar Pradesh to the central scheme for subsidised cooking gas to economically deprived families -- have failed to achieve much.
