'He is a kid':Union Minister pokes Jayant Chaudhary post RLD chief's snub to BJP

• Ahead of the first phase of assembly elections in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh on February 10, Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has hit out at RLD chief Jayant Chaudhary. Calling Jayant a kid who had just entered the political arena and was, therefore "not aware of the ground realities", Dharmendra Pradhan said that he has little knowledge of history. Pradhan also cited Chaudhary's father as an example to underscore his point. Pradhan's remarks came after Jayant turned down BJP's hint on switching his alliance to their side. Earlier, he had also said that he was not a 25 paise coin that will keep flipping sides. Jayant Chaudhary's RLD has currently formed an alliance with Akhilesh Yadav's Samajwadi Party. Watch for more details.
