"No one can betray Lalu Prasad Yadav": RJD MLA on possible return of Nitish Kumar to NDA
Jan 26, 2024
Patna (Bihar) [India], January 26 : Amid the current political situation in Bihar, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MLA Ritlal Yadav on Friday said that no one can betray party supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav adding that it does not matter whether RJD will remain in power or not.
Ritlal Yadav said that work for the public will continue irrespective of the outcome of the current political scenario in Bihar.
"No one has betrayed our Lalu Prasad Yadav nor can anyone betray him. Only the public can betray him, otherwise, no one has that power. It doesn't matter whether we are in the government or not, we will work for the people," RJD MLA said.
Earlier today, a meeting was called by the RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav at his official residence in Patna. Bihar Deputy Chief Minister also skipped an 'At Home' event at the Governor's House. However, party leader Alok Mehta, a cabinet minister was present at the event.
Coming back from the national capital after meeting with senior leadership of BJP, former Deputy Chief Minister Renu Devi said that she went to New Delhi to discuss the ensuing Lok Sabha polls.
"I have no idea about the current political situation in Bihar. I just went to Delhi to discuss about the strategy for Lok Sabha polls," Renu Devi said.
Amid the possibility of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar making yet another switch to the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), the BJP has called its state executive meeting tomorrow and the day after, the sources said.
The meeting is likely to be held on January 27 and 28.
According to the sources, the party's Bihar in-charge Vinod Tawde will go to Patna tomorrow.
If reports are to be believed, the stage seems to be set for Janata Dal (United) supremo Nitish Kumar to return to the BJP-led NDA again.
If Nitish switches sides, this will mark the fourth time in just over a decade that he would do it.
Nitish's shift would deal a severe blow to the ruling Mahagathbandhan (grand alliance) in Bihar as well as the Opposition INDIA bloc at the national level that was formed to take on the BJP-led Centre in 2024 Lok Sabha Polls.
