Patna, Oct 13 (IANS) In a major political development ahead of Bihar Assembly elections 2025, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Monday inducted two rebel leaders from the India Bloc, both of whom had won the last assembly elections on RJD and Congress tickets respectively.

Bihar unit BJP president Dilip Jaiswal formally welcomed Sangeeta Kumari, who recently resigned from Mohania assembly seat in Kaimur district, and two-time Congress MLA Siddharth Saurav from Bikram assembly seat in Patna district into the party.

Both the leaders were given primary membership of BJP at a program organized at the party’s state headquarters in Patna.

Sangeeta Kumari had contested and won the 2020 assembly elections as an RJD candidate, while Siddharth Saurav represented the Congress.

Both the leaders had resigned from their seats last week before joining BJP.

Both had earlier shown signs of discontent within the opposition faction during the floor test of the Nitish Kumar-led government in February 2024, when they sided with the ruling NDA despite being elected on opposition tickets.

His defection, along with the support of other rebels including Chetan Anand (Shivhar), Neelam Devi (Mokama), and Prahlad Yadav (Suryagarha), proved crucial in helping Nitish Kumar win the trust vote in the assembly.

Political observers have since speculated that these rebel MLAs will not be fielded again by their respective parties in the upcoming elections, making their entry into the BJP and JDU possible.

Welcoming him, BJP leaders described his induction as a boost to the party’s grassroots strength ahead of the elections.

Earlier on October 10, former Muzaffarpur MP Ajay Nishad had again joined the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Nishad formally returned to BJP along with his wife Rama Nishad.

Dilip Jaiswal welcomed him into the party.

Ajay Nishad, who hails from a prominent political family, had earlier represented Muzaffarpur in the Lok Sabha on a BJP ticket in 2014 and 2019, but later switched to the Congress after he was not given a ticket by the BJP for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
