Addressing party leaders and supporters on the occasion of 27th formation day of the party here, he said: “The price rise of every essential is very high. Common people of the country are upset with it. Leaders of BJP-RSS have distorted the atmosphere of the country. They are pushing people to hatred.”

We will uproot Narendra Modi and throw him out of power. There were 17 parties that assembled in Patna on June 23 and we are meeting again on July 17 in Bangalore,” Lalu Prasad said.
During his speech, he also said that the name of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) was suggested by senior socialist leader and former Karnataka Chief Minister Ram Krishna Hegde.
