The government or the party (BJP) has no role in it, let me make it very clear,” Naidu said. “Making political allegations against the government and the BJP has become a fashion among some opposition parties and those facing charges. By doing so they are trying to cover up their faults,” he added. The CBI on Friday carried out raids at the residences of RJD leader Lalu Prasad, his wife Rabri and son Tejashwi Yadav , who is also Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister, in connection with a case of alleged irregularities in leasing two railway hotels to a private company when Lalu was the Railways Minister, a charge denied by him.
