New Delhi : The people have once again given a chance to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in the Bihar Eelection 2020. However, this time the equations have changed a bit. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which has always played the role of younger brother, emerged as the second largest party in the state, while the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), which became the No. 1 party with the most seats, lacked just 12 seats to form a government. Is. Janata Dal United (JDU) has suffered a lot this time and has won only 43 seats. However, the BJP has made it clear that the CM of the state will be Nitish Kumar.
Meanwhile, the grand alliance is also trying its best. The grand alliance of five parties led by RJD has not given up hope yet. He is in touch with two of his former allies who are currently part of the NDA. A report in the English newspaper The Indian Express claims that the RJD-Mukesh Sahni-led Vikas Insan Party and former CM Jeetan Ram Manjhi’s Hindustani Awama Morcha are in touch with the secular. At the same time, the party is also talking to AIMIM, the party of MP Asaduddin Owaisi from Hyderabad. The report quoted sources as saying that if five seats become part of the grand alliance of AIMIM and four seats (VIP-HAM) then things can happen. Both the parties were part of the grand alliance at first, but moved to the BJP-led NDA just before the elections. According to the report, the RJD source said that what goes into trying one? If VIP and HAM come with us, it is certain that it will be to their advantage. We will give them a better place than the NDA. AIMIM is willing to support us. ‘
Confirmed by VIP and HAM leaders
The source said that no positive response has come so far but our avenues are always open. Mukesh Sahni wants to be the Deputy CM who is ready to form our party.
According to the report of Express, the leaders of VIP and HAM have confirmed that RJD is in touch with them but it has not been decided yet to leave NDA. A VIP source said, “We are being offered the post of Deputy CM and Minister. We discussed this with our leaders. But we are happy with the NDA. Also, if we move around so quickly, it can send the wrong message to our cadre. ‘
The HAM (S) leader also confirmed the RJD proposal. The leader said that “there is no question of his going back. We have not forgotten our insult yet. We will be taken care of in the NDA. ‘
What did Owaisi’s party say?
Akhtarul Ayman, president of AIMIM’s Bihar unit, said, “We will do whatever we have to do to prevent divisive forces from returning to power. It is true that the mandate of the people should be respected, we will respect it and make decisions accordingly. ‘
Another RJD leader admitted some strategic mistakes and said that the departure of VIPs from the grand alliance and the assessment of the Congress was wrong. The VIP proved that he has a share of the EBC vote. Congress proved to be a burden for us. It would have been good for us if we had given more seats to the Left parties.
The RJD leader said that he would keep a close eye on the ‘weaknesses’ of the NDA.’ Even Nitish Kumar is weak now. We are just waiting for the right time. ‘
