NEWSNOTES
 After
months of acrimony, RJD chief Laloo Prasad Yadav and his "friend
and guide" RANJAN PRASAD YADAV part ways.
Q. You have been Laloo's "friend, philosopher
and guide" since his college days. What happened?
A.
Laloo is a creation of the social justice platform. And now he is breaking
that platform. All those who helped him or promoted him were either insulted
or ousted from the party by him.
Q. You and your colleagues have formed the
RJD (Democratic). Is it big enough to oust Laloo?
A. This
is just the beginning of the war between vikas (development) and vinash
(destruction). On the question of development, I am ready to pay any price
and face any consequence.
Q. But you yourself have been instrumental
in promoting Laloo and protecting the Laloo-Rabri raj.
A. Enough
is enough. The future of Bihar cannot be sacrificed for Laloo's promotion.
Q. The RJD
national spokesman Shivanand Tiwary has referred to you as "Shikhandi".
A. It is below my standard to comment on
people like Tiwary. I can only reply to Laloo, though I will not use the
kind of language he uses. I am a cultured person, a university professor.
