RAJGIR (Bihar): RJD president Lalu Prasad today appealed to the non-BJP parties to “sink their differences” and come together like the Grand Alliance in Bihar to defeat the saffron party in the next Lok Sabha polls.
“I had a very serious fight with Nitish Kumar. But, to stop the surge of the BJP, we sank our differences and forged an alliance to defeat it in the 2015 Bihar polls,” he said.
“Every party opposed to the BJP should sink its differences and come together to defeat it in the 2019 parliamentary election,” Prasad said after inaugurating a two-day training camp of the RJD here.
He said “positive talks” have been held with Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, Samajwadi Party president Akhilesh Yadav and BSP supremo Mayawati to forge the alliance.
JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar had met Congress president Sonia Gandhi recently to give pace to the process of forging an alliance among the non-BJP parties. (AGENCIES)
