Congress leader Rahul Gandhi said, “Our relationship has not been limited to politics – it is based on common values and struggle for social justice. Your life has been full of struggles, but you have always raised your voice for those who are often unheard. I wish you good health and long life.”
Union MSME Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi said: “Today, when he is not in power, ‘Sahab’ is cutting cake with a sword. If by mistake the son gets power, the cake will be cut with an AK-47. Isn’t it, Lalu Prasad Yadav? Anyway, happy birthday.”
