Nitish’s rise in stature, Lalu’s return to politics inauspicious sign for BJP!

PATNA: After the meeting of 20 political parties in Patna, the stature of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has increased at the national level. Besides, RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav is making a comeback in politics once again. The way these two leaders approached the meeting and played the role of facilitator, it does not bode well for the BJP in Bihar and the country. Both these leaders have a unique style of connecting with the people of the state. This was seen in the 2015 assembly elections when he stopped the “victory chariot” of Narendra Modi in Bihar.

The situation is even worse for the BJP in 2024 as the anti-incumbency wave is also at its peak. The BJP government at the Center has been facing a lot of criticism for failing to fulfill the promises made in 2014. In such a situation, the pair of Lalu Prasad and Nitish Kumar will make him a strong opponent for the BJP.

It was Nitish Kumar who played an important role in inviting leaders of various political parties to come to Patna on his invitation. This also proved that Nitish Kumar has the highest acceptability among various political parties. He has a clean record and no legal or corruption charges against him. He was also declared the convenor of these parties, which means he will play the role of a mediator during seat-sharing talks between two or more parties for the Lok Sabha elections.

After the stupendous success of the Patna meeting, JD-U MLA Shalini Mishra uploaded a post on social media with a picture of Nitish Kumar and the slogan “Desh Maange Nitish”. Ashok Chowdhary, minister for building construction in the Bihar government, said, “Behind every mass movement, there is a strong person’s hand. Bihar has been witness to many mass movements in the past, which shook the ruling parties in the country.”

Chowdhary said, “It is necessary to have a strong opposition in a democracy and it is possible with the efforts of Nitish Kumar.” JD-U national president Lalan Singh said, “JP Nadda and Amit Shah have nothing left to say to us. So, they talk of Congress and Shiv Sena coming on the same platform where we are. This is a An irresponsible move.” statement.”

“When we were fighting during the Emergency in 1975, it was a fight against the situation at that time and not against any government. In the present phase the situation is worse than the Emergency. At that time, the press was free but now the press is under their control. All constitutional institutions are under their control. They have taken control over the management of media organizations. So, democracy is in danger today. BJP is destroying democracy and asking us to remember Emergency,” ‘ said the lion.

He said, “If someone speaks against you (Centre), CBI, ED, Income Tax target them. This was not the case during Emergency when Indira Gandhi used these constitutional institutions. The Center is for the people of the country, freedom threatening.” The country is in danger and hence we are fighting this situation and the Congress party is with us, Singh said.

Reacting to Amit Shah’s statement, Lalan Singh said, ‘He is a prophet and if he has predicted that BJP will win more than 300 seats and Modi ji will form the government in the country, then it means that Modi ji is losing the election. ‘ When the 2015 assembly elections were being held in Bihar, he stayed here for three months and predicted till 10.30 am on the day of counting that the BJP would form the government. What was the result, BJP won only 53 seats. When he went to West Bengal, he predicted his government with two-thirds of the mandate. His party was fighting against Mamta didi, what happened there. He made the same prediction in Himachal and Karnataka and what were the results? If he is claiming that Modi ji will form the government by winning 300 seats, it means he is losing the election, Lalan Singh said.

“Before the opposition unity meeting started in Patna, BJP leaders spread confusion as to who would come and who would not on Friday. Now, you have seen all political parties with anti-BJP-RSS ideology gathered on one platform. We believe The meeting was successful beyond our expectations. BJP leaders now believe that their departure is near and they are feeling uneasy. RJD spokesperson Chittaranjan Gagan said, “Foundation of BJP-free India at Patna meeting. kept.”

“We have a simple formula to reduce one-on-one fighting and vote-split. We have a higher percentage of votes than BJP. In 2019 Lok Sabha elections, they got only 37% votes, which means voters I have anti-saffron leanings.” “The mindset is that numbers are too many,” Gagan said.
