BJP today tried to downplay the reported rift in NDA following the war of words between former Bihar Chief Minister and HAM (Secular) leader Jitan Ram Manjhi and LJP Chief Ram Vilas Paswan. Talking to media in New Delhi, party spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain said there are no differences within the NDA and once the parties sit together everything will be sorted out. He said there are different parties in the alliance but their sole aim is removal of JD(U)- RJD from Bihar in the upcoming assembly elections.<br/><br/>Earlier, Mr. Manjhi had accused Mr. Paswan of insulting him by saying that the HAM leader is on trial basis in the NDA. He also questioned Mr. Paswan's status as a leader of Dalits charging him with practicing dynasty politics. Meanwhile, LJP leader Chirag Paswan said he has good personal and political relations with the former Chief Minister and he does not know in what context he made these remarks. He also said Mr. Manjhi is a respected leader and the NDA has been strengthened after he joined the alliance.<br/><br/>AIR correspondent reports that Union Minister Ananth Kumar, who is in-charge of BJP for Bihar elections, is scheduled to hold separate meetings with Ram Vilas Paswan and Mr. Manjhi tomorrow in New Delhi on the issue of seat sharing.
