NEW DELHI: Janata Dal (United) leader Nitish Kumar has denied the charge of horse-trading in Bihar. On the charge reiterated by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh at the end of his Rajasthan tour on Tuesday, Mr. Nitish Kumar said: "The Prime Minister is proud of his integrity. I am younger to him, but I am no less proud of my integrity." A majority of the Lok Jan Shakti Party members, who were unhappy with their leader Ram Vilas Paswan's stand on government formation, decided on leaving the party. "The decision of the majority then becomes the decision of the party," he told mediapersons on the sidelines of a meeting of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) held here to release the report card on the one-year performance of the United Progressive Alliance Government. Assailing the UPA Government for taking a "sudden decision" to dissolve the Assembly and call elections, he asked what was the hurry. The Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs, which met "under the garb of discussing Sunday's bomb blasts in two cinema halls in Delhi", took the decision to pre-empt the NDA staking claim to form a government. "If they want elections, we want immediate elections."
