Paswan has lost the game: Lalu

May 21, 2005 23:45 IST

Rashtriya Janata Party chief Lalu Prasad Yadav [ Images ] on Saturday night said his detractor Ramvilas Paswan [ Images ] had "lost the game" in Bihar and his Lok Janashakti Party was finally going to split, which would be sad for the UPA, particularly the RJD.

Ridiculing the various proposals of Paswan to form government in Bihar, where assembly polls resulted in a hung House, Lalu said, "People are not foolish, you cannot cheat the people. He has lost the game in Bihar," Lalu told NDTV.

He said he was watching every electronic media report, news coming from Jamshedpur and Patna.

"His party is going to split... it is very sad for the UPA, particularly me," the RJD chief said.

In Ranchi, Jharkhand LJP leaders said nearly a dozen LJP legislators were "holding talks" with Janata Dal-United leaders at a resort in Jamshedpur.
