We will perform Chhath in Mumbai : Lalu

Ranchi, Feb 14 (UNI) Reacting to MNS president Raj Thackeray's reported statement that "Chhath" festival would not be allowed in Mumbai anymore, RJD president Lalu Prasad today said he would celebrate the festival this time there only.

'' No Bihari should be afraid of such Thackerays as they only know how to disrupt the country, '' Mr Prasad said on his arrival by a special train to attend the party-sponsored "Chetna" rally here.

He said, '' I have talked to UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi and senior leaders in this regard so that the situation in Maharashtra does not go out of bound. '' He warned Mr Thackeray not to indulge in such dirty politics as it might have adverse impact across the country.
