With 'abba jaan' remarks of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stoking a row, JD(U) president Lalan Singh said on Tuesday that political parties should maintain restraint in their comments.

Singh, a confidant of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, no remarks should be made that harm the country.  

In this context, he also took a swipe at JMM leader and Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren for his remarks allegedly aimed at Bhojpuri and Magahi-speaking people of the state.

Addressing a programme in Kushinagar on Sunday, Adityanath had alleged that people did not get rations before 2017 like they do now. The CM had said back then people who say ‘abba jaan’ used to digest the rations.
