In the midst of conjectures of volatile vibes between the BJP and its ally in Bihar, the Janata Dal (United), the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh’s English mouthpiece Organiser has published a no-holds-barred interview of expelled JD(U) leader Ajay Alok who strongly criticised Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and said the ‘sushashan babu’ lost the support of both Hindus and Muslims due to his ‘appeasement politics’.
Interestingly, the interview, published in the latest edition of the magazine, came just a month after it had published an article criticising the Nitish government following the JD(U)‘s demand for a review of the armed forces recruitment scheme Agnipath.
The interview, also available on video on the magaine’s Youtube channel, is a little over 30 minutes, where Mr. Alok castigates Mr. Kumar’s policy of prohibition, stating that it has caused massive loss of revenue in Bihar and lead to the thriving of a parallel economy governed by liquor mafia.
