Faraz Ahmad, a Freelance journalist has concluded that "there is one and only one leader, who never softened towards the BJP and that is Lalu Prasad. That is why a Bhumihar judge has served him a five year sentence in jail. BJP and its cronies vilification campaign against rival politicians : "Honest when you are with, but how you corrupt if you oppose BJP "?
Faraz Ahmad : Now that Lalu Yadav has been safely thrown behind bars at Birsa Munda jail, Ranchi, the BJP has turned around and taken a second look at Ntisih Kumar. For years Rabri Devi and Lalu Prasad have been complaining that if the CBI could rely upon the confessional accusation of the prime accused in the fodder scam Shyam Bihari Sinha for inferring Lalu’s involvement in the scam, then the same yardstick be applied to all others including Nitish Kumar whom Sinha has also named in his confessional statement.
INDIA HONEST suggests that BJP has the least role in putting Lalu in jail; the crime was proved by the investigating agency CBI, engaged by the Congress, and Congress allowed to complete the delivery of judgement at such time only, when they thought their need for Lalu is almost over. The other pointed case of Nitish Kumar is already under the jurisdiction of the court, how anybody can influence that ?
Faraz Ahmad : The CBI ignored such pleas and in the eyes of the BJP and the casteist media, Nitish was a politician of unmatched integrity, committed to development of Bihar through clean governance. Every now and then BJP leaders would sing paeans of Nitish Kumar. Bihar never had a leader like Nitish Kumar! Why? The BJP needed a credible OBC face to juxtapose Lalu and so almost every BJP leader, be he Bihari or national cited Nitish Kumar as the ideal role model, “secular and pro-development with impeccable integrity.
Every so often L K Advani, Arun Jaitley, Sushil Kumar Modi and Ravi Shankar Prasad would throw broad hints that Nitish Kumar could even be projected as the NDA’s secular PM candidate. Only two BJP leaders, Rajiv Pratap Rudy and Syed Shahnawaz Husain were distrustful of Nitish, but they did not question his integrity either.
INDIA HONEST argues the investigating agencies are under the direct control of Madam's UPA government, and now she is more close to Nitish Kumar than BJP, so even if Lalu wants to take revenge, she may not like it to leave the new friendship with bigger fish( JD-U) in lieu of one spent force Lalu. Don't you realise this when to please Nitish Kumar , Rahul Gandhi all of a sudden cancelled the famous "ordinance" just in ten minutes ?
Faraz Ahmad : But the BJP behaves worse than a woman scorned. Never mind Lalu’s grouse and we are not even discussing here the merits of the case, though I do believe that there is some merit in Lalu’s case against Nitish in the fodder scam as well. That apart, when did BJP discover Nitish Kumar to be involved in the fodder scam?
INDIA HONEST surprises, how innocent FA is ?More he needs to learn the ethics of a Freelance journalist, the better (BJP behaves worse than a woman scorned) . The secret was first discovered by Rahul , then BJP discovered every thing. Yes it was visible on the same moment, when Nitish Kumar also got to know that BJP and Modi are communal; and also when JD(U) discovered that Congress not corrupt (after one decade) and it is innocent in the 2G case and then JD(U) voted in favour of Congress in the JPC standing committee meeting along with RJD.
Faraz Ahmad : Suddenly of all the people Sushil Kumar Modi who had lodged the cases against Lalu Yadav and his legal counsel Ravi Shankar Prasad, who together guided the investigations and prosecution in fodder scam for years together, discovered that Nitish Kumar too was a beneficiary of “fodder loot” to the tune of Rs 1.50 crores? And the Jharkhand High Court which turned a deaf ear to Lalu’s pleas all the while throughout these 13 years has suddenly woken and posted a notice on 20 September to the CBI to explain why Nitish and his party colleague Shivanand Tiwari should not be arraigned as accused in the fodder scam. The court has asked CBI to file its reply by 22 November.
Faraz Ahmad, you better hope and pray, Nitish Kumar is also convicted and Lalu or Rabri or even Tejaswani gets the crown in Patna .But if they fail to do so, don't blame BJP, but thank the people of Bihar .
