Shah targets Nitish, alleges Oppn leaders' role in ₹20L-cr scam

Shah, who arrived for a day's visit to Patna, also said that all attempts of the Congress to project Rahul Gandhi as a mass leader had "failed".

Addressing a mega rally in Lakhisarai, Shah referred to Kumar - a former ally of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) - as paltu babu (one who changes stances) and accused him of fooling his current ally and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief, Lalu Prasad. Kumar was the host of the opposition meeting in Patna.

The Union minister also took a dig at a meeting of Opposition parties in Patna on June 23.
