Amid war of words with Nitish Kumar PM Modi to address Bihar rally today

Patna, Sep 1 (IBNS) Amid a running battle with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will address his fourth election rally in the state on Tuesday.

At the rally to be held in Bhagalpur he is expected to counter a joint attack launched on him by Nitish Kumar and his allies RJD chief Lalu Prasad and Congress President Sonia Gandhi.

At a mega rally in Patna on Sunday, they targeted PM Modi for the Centre's decision against going ahead with the changes it had planned in the law for acquiring land for big projects.

Nitish Kumar and Sonia Gandhi alleged that the PM was forced to "bow to the people's will" and abandon an "anti-farmer law."

Earlier, the Prime Minister had caused chagrin to Nitish Kumar by questioning his "DNA" while making an attack on his political integrity. Kumar clinched it as an issue to launch a counter propaganda that Modi had insulted the people of Bihar.

At his last rally, PM Modi had announced a special package of  Rs. 1.25 lakh-crore for Bihar which Nitish Kumar discarded as an attempt to sell a "fairy tale" to the state's people.

As Modi's BJP has made Bihar its bull's eye for the coming assembly elections, Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal (U), Lalu Prasad's Rashtriya Janata Dal and the Congress have forged an alliance among themselves to hold forte. Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party is also lending support to Nitish Kumar.
