JD(U) slams VHP support for Modi, says 'sadhus can't decide PM candidate'
Its allies remain as much a divided house as the BJP on whether Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi should be their prime ministerial candidate for the 2014 elections. Janata Dal (United) national spokesperson Shivanand Tiwari, in an apparent dig at the Vishwa Hindu Parishad over supporting Mr Modi, has said that political parties, and not sadhus, would decide the prime ministerial candidate of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
