Bihar Polls: Why Sushil Modi wants Lalu Yadav out of jail

In the latest episode of On The Record, Hindustan Times’ Sunetra Choudhury speaks to Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Modi over assembly elections in the state and the Covid-19 pandemic.

In the interview, Modi said that Lalu Prasad Yadav’s leadership could benefit the NDA in the upcoming Bihar elections.

Modi said, “The left is hardly a force in Bihar, they are a spent force.

So RJD aligning with any other party doesn’t mean anything.

There is a huge gap in the vote share between BJP and these parties.

The credibility of these parties- the RJD, the Congress, they don’t have a leadership.

And leaders like Lalu Prasad Yadav- we can’t help him come out of jail but if he comes out of jail, and he campaigns, it will benefit NDA more.” Watch the full video for more.
