Congress actually running Madhu Koda govt, Mahajan

Giridih, Oct 30 (UNI) The BJP today said the UPA stands no chance of garnering votes in Koderma for "incoherence" among the allies and charged the Congress leadership with running the government from behind the curtain.

BJP in-charge of Jharkhand Sumitra Mahajan said the state government in Jharkhand was being run by the UPA leaders sitting in Delhi.

Ms Mahajan said the Congress actually wanted fresh election but did not disclose their strategy fearing public wrath.

Talking to reporters here, she said people would not vote for BJP derserter Babulal Marandi for he was now campaigning against the party which made him a leader.

People will not forgive the act of betrayal , she said.

The BJP leader said the wave in Koderma was with the BJP, adding people would not accept those who favoured postponement of Afzal Guru's death sentence, an acused in Parliament blast case.

Referring to Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav's active role in "toppling" the erstwhile NDA governmnet and help in installing the UPA at the helm of affairs, she said his main intention was aimed at getting relieved from his Animal Husbandary cases.
