Audio Bulletin: Modi calls SP-RLD-BSP alliance 'saraab'

 Prime Minister Narendra modi on Thursday dubbed the alliance of the Samajwadi Party (SP), Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) in Uttar Pradesh as 'saraab', saying it is harmful for one's health and the state.

The Congress and the Samajwadi Party promptly slammed the Prime Minister for likening the opposition parties with liquor. Saraab in Urdu means mirage or illusion while a similar sounding "sharaab" in Hindi stands for alcohol.
