    'There was no Fourth Front. We had an understanding with our alliance partners.'

    With Congress reluctant to accommodate him in the new government, RJD chief Lalu Prasad appeared resigned to his fate on Wednesday, saying he would not feel bad if he doesn't get a cabinet berth.

    "Those who bring power to Delhi are worshipped. I did not get that power," Prasad, who was the Railway Minister in the previous UPA government, said referring to the drubbing the party received in the Lok Sabha polls in Bihar winning only four out of 40 seats.

    "I would not feel bad if I am not offered a berth in the Cabinet," he told a TV news channel.

    The RJD chief said he has pledged unconditional support to the Congress-led UPA government and has no qualms about not being part of the new government.

    Asked about the future of the Fourth Front comprising RJD, LJP and Samajwadi Party, Prasad claimed that such a Front did not exist at all.

    "There was no Fourth Front. We had an understanding with our alliance partners," he said.

    To a question, he said he shared good relationship with Congress president Sonia Gandhi's family and would not like to say a single word against them.

    Prasad said that ups and downs are part of politics. "It will definitely hurt, but this hurt will be shortlived. We will go back to the people who are our strength. Winning and losing is part of politics," the RJD chief told a TV channel.

    If not Laloo, at least Rabri should be given some seat By: Rajesh | 21-May-2009 Reply | Forward No! what do you think. Every wife is the strength of a man, specially in illiterate and poor India, who keeps voting the worst party to power, year after year. They did nothing in last 40 years, except win elections.

    Laluji Deserves a BerthBy: Cecil R. David | 21-May-2009 Reply | Forward If performance is a criteria of good governance, then Laluji deserves to be given his Railway portfolio once again so that he can complete what he started during his terms as Railway Minister. I wish him well. May the powers that be take note of this fact.
