Bihar, September 20: The word war has been intensified in Bihar ahead of the assembly election. Rashtriya Janata Dal supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav on Monday lashed out chief minister Nitish Kumar on Monday for financial irregularities during his regime.
The former Bihar chief minister accused NDA government of misuse of government fund.
"It is certain that the JD-U-BJP (Janata Dal-United and Bharatiya Janata Party) government of Nitish Kumar will not win the (October-November) assembly elections," Lalu Prasad told a press conference in Patna.
Lalu said that Nitish government was involved in a financial scam of Rs 32 thousands crore.
When asked to comment on the resignation of his brother-in-law Subhash Yadav, Lalu avoided any comment and just wished Subhash Best of Luck. However, he said that the personal bond will be continued with Subhash Yadav.
"Good Luck Subhashji. Accept my good wishes," Prasad remarked when mediamen asked for his comments on Subhash deserting him.
"Wherever he goes and whatever height he achieves, the fact will remain that I am his 'behnoi' and he is my 'sala'," Prasad added.

"RJD is a sinking boat and none will like to ride this boat during the upcoming Assembly elections in Bihar. The captain of the RJD ship has lived his life and he is not in a position to navigate it to the jetty," Yadav told reporters here.
