New Delhi: Exhibiting its antipathy to the projection of Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi as the NDA’s prime ministerial candidate in the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, the JD-U Saturday found fault with the alliance management of the BJP but did not signal that it was moving closer to the Congress.
Janata Dal-Untied (JD-U) spokesperson K.C. Tyagi raised questions over Narendra Modi’s role in containing the 2002 riots in the state as chief minister.
“As chief minister, Narendra Modi had not shown the alacrity and sensitivity in dealing with the riots which occurred in 2002,” Tyagi said after the first day of national meeting of the party here. (IANS)
