BJP ally RLSP differs on cow slaughter ban in Bihar

Patna, Oct 6: The RLSP on Tuesday differed with its ally BJP over the ban on cow slaughter in Bihar if the NDA wins the assembly polls and forms the next government.

"It is not proper to say such things without discussing with all allies," Rashtriya Lok Samta Party state president Arun Kumar told the media here.

The NDA's agenda was development, not ban on beef or cow slaughter, he said.

The RLSP leader was reacting to BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi's statement that the party will ban cow slaughter in Bihar if it wins the polls.

BJP leaders have been targeting Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad after he said some Hindus also eat beef.
