Is JDU being funded from within Pakistan?

Saswat Panigrahi
On the sidelines of JDU national executive meeting in April, held in New Delhi, then national secretary of the party Shivraj Singh hurled a political bomb shell.
“The JDU is being funded from within hostile nations,” Singh had alleged. Shivraj was leveling the allegations months after Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar visited Pakistan.
Now fast forward to August, when the whole country is mourning the unprovoked killing of five Indian soldiers by the Pakistani Army in Poonch sector.
Four of the five soldiers killed in the LoC attacks hail from Bihar. When the mortal remains of the martyr soldiers arrived at Patna Airport, not a single Minister from Nitish Kumar’s Cabinet turned up. Moreover, the JDU chose to give the slain jawans’ last rites a miss.
