RJD indulged in caste based politics, damaging social fabric: Chaudhary

Samastipur, May 8 (UNI) Senior JD(U) leader and Bihar Water Resources Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary on Thursday said RJD is indulging in caste-based politics and fanning hatred among various sections of the society.
Chaudhary, while addressing a public meeting here in the Sarairanjan assembly segment, said that RJD was only fanning hatred among various sections of the society on caste lines. RJD had nothing to do with the development, prosperity and welfare of the people, as the party was also responsible for caste tension in society when it was in power in Bihar for a long 15 years from 1990 to 2005, he added.
"In sharp contrast, the Nitish-led NDA government is strictly pursuing the line of development with justice to all," the JD(U) leader said, adding that the interests of all sections of the society were being taken care of under the present regime in the state. People were getting benefits of various schemes launched for them by the government, he added.
