Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) president Chirag Paswan on Sunday said that he welcomed any attack on him by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders and even by Prime Minister Narendra Modi if it satisfies Bihar CM Nitish Kumar’s agenda, but he advised the leaders to “use the words wisely”. His remarks came a day after BJP leader and Union home minister Amit Shah commented on his “Hanuman of Modi” remark, saying “LJP president should not harbour any illusions”.
“He (Nitish Kumar) has wasted most of the time to show how LJP and BJP are divided. The Chief Minister is fielding all big BJP leaders to speak against me. I just want to say that they are free to speak against me. I would even say that if the Prime Minister wants to say something against me just to satisfy the chief minister, he can,” Chirag told ANI here.
Chirag also said that Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar should thank BJP for following the coalition religiously. Chirag again thanked PM Modi for supporting him during his tough phase and inspired him to bring out ‘Bihar first Bihari first’ vision document.
