RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav will not be part of the new Manmohan Singh Cabinet.
The RJD leader was not invited to a crucial meeting with the UPA's pre-poll allies at Sonia Gandhi's 10 Janpath residence. The Congress has made it clear all parties present in Wednesday's meeting will be in the government.
PTI adds: With Congress reluctant to accommodate him in the new government, RJD chief appeared resigned to his fate, saying he would not feel bad if he doesn't get a cabinet berth.
"Those who bring power to Delhi are worshipped. I did not get that power," Prasad, who was the Railway Minister in the previous UPA government, said referring to the drubbing the party received in the Lok Sabha polls in Bihar winning only four out of 40 seats.
The RJD chief said he has pledged unconditional support to the Congress-led UPA government and has no qualms about not being part of the new government.
