VARANASI: Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav termed
Anna Hazare's movement on Lokpal issue as meaningless.
Lalu was in the city on Thursday to inaugurate a clinic in Sundarpur
area. During a brief chat with journalists during his stay here, he
said, "B R Ambedkar had made an ideal constitution for the country and
we will not allow anyone to change or challenge it."
He added, "Anna and his team should make it clear first that who has
elected them and in what capacity they are trying to supersede the
parliament, democratically elected members of parliament, the
constitution and also the judiciary."
He said, "Nothing would happen whether Anna sits or stands anywhere."
Regarding the demand of separate statehood for Purvanchal, he said
that he had raised this demand for the first time.
He said the RJD is still of the opinion that Purvanchal should be
declared a separate state and Varanasi should be declared its capital.
He added that the existing map of Bihar should not be disturbed to
form Purvanchal as Bihar has already become a small state after
separation of Jharkhand.
UP is a big state and its division is a must for the overall
development of its backward regions. He said that he would build
pressure for the inclusion of Bhojpuri language in the eight schedule
