Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, while talking to reporters in Patna on Monday, ridiculed Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) president Lalu Prasad Yadav's accusations that he was taking the ongoing 'Thanksgiving March' at the taxpayers' cost saying facts did not mean much to Yadav who was in the habit of making things up as needed to suit his own agenda.
"Yadav is not particularly known for his penchant for truth. Before making baseless allegations against me, he should have known that my travel expenses are being borne by the Janata Dal (U) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)," the Chief Minister said.
Kumar said that it was evident that Yadav, due to his party's crushing defeat in the last Lok Sabha polls, had become frustratingly angry leading to one outrageous statement after another.
"He has only 4 seats but when he talks, it appears he is still very much in command in Bihar," Kumar said.
The Chief Minister also demanded a clarification from Yadav on his relationship with the Congress Party.
"Is he still with the UPA or he is against the Congress? What is it? Perhaps even he does not have an answer to that question," said Kumar.
