According to BJP leaders, Shiv Sena’s stand against North Indians never went down well with Lalu, but Tejashwi Yadav has taken a different path from his father. Regarding Aditya-Nitish meeting, BJP said that Nitish Kumar has traveled around the country from Delhi, but he did not find any sense even in the opposition parties.

BJP leaders also said that such meetings will have no affect on Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government. As he himself chose to be unbothered with such meets and plannings.

Reports say Aaditya Thackeray was accompanied by the party secretary Anil Desai and MP Priyanka Chaturvedi.

Earlier, Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar also took steps to unite the opposition parties against the BJP.

A video has been doing rounds on the social media where Nitish Kumar could be seen honouring Tejashwi and Aaditya Thackery’s with a shawl.
