New Delhi

Politically motivated: Lalu

New Delhi: Peeved over U.P. Government’s refusal to deliver land in Rae Bareili for the rail coach factory, Railways Minister Lalu Prasad lashed out at Chief Minister Mayawati, terming the move as “unfortunate” and “condemnable”. “It is unfortunate for U.P. and Bihar that such governments are in power who do not want development to take place,” he said. Describing the move as politically motivated, Mr. Prasad said: “There are many other ways of fighting politics. But this kind of attitude is not done.”
