"BJP, JDU have nothing to do with Bihar and Biharis": RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav

Patna (Bihar) [India], May 19 (ANI): Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav on Monday attacked Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal (United) and said that both the parties have nothing to do with Bihar and Biharis.
"BJP and JDU have nothing to do with Bihar and Biharis. They have no concern for studies, medicines, income, irrigation, hearing, education, or health. They only know how to abuse Lalu Prasad Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav day and night on TV...There is a competition going on in the Bihar Government to give statements against us," Tejashwi Yadav told reporters in Patna.
Earlier today, Union Minister and Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief Chirag Paswan asserted that there is "no vacancy" currently in Bihar for the post of Chief Minister and CM Nitish Kumar will lead a strong NDA government after the Assembly polls.
"There is no vacancy currently in Bihar for the post of CM. After the election results, under the leadership and vision of PM Modi, CM Nitish Kumar will lead a strong NDA government. After the Bihar elections results, NDA government will be formed," Chirag Paswan told reporters in Darbhanga.
In a significant political development in Bihar ahead of the Assembly polls scheduled to be held later this year, former Union Minister Ram Chandra Prasad Singh has merged his political outfit, Aap Sabki Awaz (ASA), with the Jan Suraaj Party, led by Prashant Kishor.
Singh left JD(U) in 2023 to join Bharatiya Janata Party and in 2024 announced the formation of his own Party, 'Aap Sabki Awaz', announcing his contention for the 2025 Bihar election.
The Bihar Assembly elections are expected to be held in October and November this year, wherein the NDA, which consists of the BJP, JD(U), and LJP, will be once again looking forward to returning to power. In contrast, the INDIA Bloc will be giving competition to the incumbent Nitish Kumar government. (ANI)
