Coming up heavily on BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi, RJD chief lalu Prasad who reached here on Thursday to record his statement in a special CBI court in a fodder scam case RC64A/96, said that Modi along with RSS are trying to communalise the country by creating hurdles for the passage of Communal Violence Bill.

RC64A/96 involves fraudulent withdrawal of Rs 90 crore from Deoghar Treasury during 1990-96. He also called Third Front as insignificant. lalu said that his ultimate aim is to check communal forces from coming to the power. “A joint effort should be made by all the like-minded parties to check communal forces coming to the power without caring for the numbers,” said lalu.

lalu said that the Third Front has no significance in national politics and no meaning. “Congress is an all India party. RJD and lJP are also there,” lalu added and said that he had come to Ranchi to attend court who will also take part in several party programmes besides talking to his advocates regarding the cases going on against him. lalu is also likely to meet Rahul Gandhi on Friday in Ranchi.
