Patna: Taking a dig at his bete noire Railway Minister Lalu Prasad for going on a foundation laying spree in Bihar, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today called him TTS (tabar tor silanayas) mantri .

Kumar told reporters on the sidelines of his weekly janata darbar that the acronymn TTS fits Prasad aptly as he has gone on a foundation laying spree in the state with an eye on the coming Lok Sabha elections.

The chief minister asked reporters not to disturb Prasad by asking questions about him (Nitish Kumar) as his very name annoyed Lalu Prasad that prompts him to make all kinds of irrelevant statements.

Prasad, he claimed, would soon become irrelevant in country's politics and his appeal to the kayastha community yesterday, for cooperation will find no takers.

Referring to de-recognition of Bihar Cricket Assoication (BCA) headed by Prasad, the chief minister said politicians should keep themselves away from sport bodies and allow the sportsmen to prosper without any interference.

Kumar had yesterday coined another acronymn TTM (tabar tor malish) to take a dig at BJP MP CP Thakur - whose NGO has recommended Thakur's name for the Nobel Peace Prize.
