Former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding his first rally in Bihar. He questioned whether the PM would speak against nepotism in his election campaign in the state.
Pappu Yadav has been urging RJD supremo Lalu Yadav to reconsider his decision regarding Purnia and give it to the Congress, since the RJD announced to field former minister and Rupauli MLA Bima Bharati from the seat.
After a dramatic volte-face, ditching the Mahagathbandhan and the opposition bloc INDIA and forming a new government with the BJP, JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar, along with eight ministers--three each from the BJP and the JD-U, one from HAM and one independent--took oath on Sunday.
Speaking to ANI, Neeraj Kumar said that there is a 'restlessness' among the leadership of the RJD, probably the most important party in the grand alliance of Bihar.
Speculations are rife that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar will possibly cross over to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) again, an alliance he left in 2022 to join hands with the Opposition and form 'Mahagathbandhan'.
