New Delhi, Aug 6 - Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad, a senior member of the previous United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government, Thursday criticised the ruling coalition and said there was no coordination among the ministers.

'I cannot see any coordination in the UPA 2. There is no coordination,' Lalu Prasad said while participating in a discussion in the Lok Sabha on the price rise.

Criticising senior ministers for not being present in the house when important matters are discussed, Lalu Prasad said: 'All of them have disappeared.'

Only Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pawan Kumar Bansal and his deputy V. Naryanasami were present, he noted and added sarcastically: 'Both of them are like birds that feel they are holding the whole sky.'

Lalu Prasad said the government should take the opposition into confidence to find solution to issues such as the price rise that directly affect the people.
