Other BJP leaders like Sambit Patra and Bhupender Yadav too hit out at Paswan. They said that Chirag should not live in an illusion or spread illusion. Patra said that the LJP is doing politics of spreading confusion and lies and this is unfortunate.
Paswan asserted on Friday he is Narendra Modi's "Hanuman" and that the prime minister lives in his heart.
Paswan's statement came on a day when he was excoriated by Union Minister Prakash Javadekar, who called the LJP leader a "vote Katua" (splitter of votes) and accused him of trying to create a confusion by harping on his equations with senior leaders of the saffron party.
"The prime minister lives in my heart....I am like his Hanuman. If they (his critics) want, they can prise open my heart and see that. I don't need to use the prime minister's photograph," Paswan said.
