Patna, Bihar: Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) is all set to launch 'tumtums' or horse-carts to counter BJP's 'parivartan raths' or chariots in the run up to assembly elections in Bihar, elections are due in a few months.
While 160 raths of BJP will make people aware of BJP led National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) policies over the last one year, RJD will start their campaign with 1,000 tumtums. The low budget horse-carts of Lalu Prasad's RJD will be fitted with a 'bhonpu' or loudspeaker and will carry the party's message to the interiors of the state.
Addressing a function in Patna, Mr Prasad said, "Amit Shah is indulging in 'dhong' (hypocrisy) in Bihar. He should first wash the sin committed in Gujarat in 2002."
BJP President Amit Shah had attacked the RJD chief yesterday, warning people of "jungle raj" returning to Bihar at a public function.
Mr Prasad reiterated his demand for release of caste data in the Socio-Economic and Caste Census report, if the caste report was not made public, he will observe one day protest fast on July 26 and RJD would organise Bihar bandh the next day.
