[Patna]Paswan’s Daughter Slams him for Calling Rabri ‘Angootha Chhap’
Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan’s estranged daughter Asha Paswan on Saturday criticised him for making a veiled attack on Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Rabri Devi over the party’s opposition to the Centre’s quota bill and demanded an apology from him.
She also threatened to stage a dharna at the office of his Lok Janshakti Party (LJP).
Paswan, at a press conference attacked RJD for opposing bill to provide 10 per cent reservation for the economically backward in general category.
“They (RJD) believe in merely raising slogans and making ‘angootha chhap’ (illiterate person) the chief minister,” he had said, without naming anybody.
Paswan’s daughter Asha said.”Papa has insulted Rabri Devi. My mother too was uneducated — a reason why he abandoned her. He must apologise or else I will stage a dharna in front of the LJP office,”
She is Paswan’s daughter from his first marriage. Her husband, Arun Sadhu, had joined the RJD last year.
Paswan is separated from his first wife Raj Kumari Devi who lives alone at Samastipur district. He has anointed his son from his second marriage, Chirag Paswan, as his political successor and lives with his second wife Reena Paswan.
