Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday lashed out at the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for fielding the son of late criminal Shahabuddin in the Bihar assembly elections. Addressing a public meeting in Saran, Shah said that to keep Bihar safe, the Modi-Nitish duo will have to be brought back to power.
Shah said, “I have seen the list of RJD-Rashtriya Janata Dal candidates and Shahabuddin’s son’s name is also there in it. Can Bihar remain safe if RJD gives election ticket to Shahabuddin’s son? If we have to keep Bihar safe, we will have to bring back the Modi-Nitish duo.”
