Muzaffarpur, Nov. 5: Union Home Minister Amit Shah today attacked Bihar’s Nitish Kumar government, accusing it of deliberately showing inflated Muslim and Yadav population in the State’s caste survey as part of its “appeasement politics”, reports The Hindu quoting a PTI report.
Addressing a rally in Muzaffarpur district, the senior BJP leader said that the decision to conduct the caste survey in the State was taken when Nitish Kumar’s JD(U) was an NDA constituent.
Last year, JD(U) severed ties with the BJP and joined the Mahagathbandhan alliance comprising Congress, RJD and Left parties.
Attacking the Opposition INDIA alliance, of which both JD(U) and RJD are key members, Mr. Shah alleged that the only agenda of the bloc is to oppose Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
