Patna, Oct 22 (IANS) Lok Janshakti Party Ram Vilas (LJPRV) chief Chirag Paswan on Wednesday targeted RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav and termed his election promises of regularizing contractual employees and Jeevika Didis as ‘Mungeri Lal’s dreams’.
Speaking to reporters in Patna, Paswan said, “First, he will at least form the government and then think about it. The leaders of the Grand Alliance are busy fighting among themselves. As a result, the Grand Alliance has been completely destroyed. Despite this, if Tejashwi Yadav thinks that he will come to power, he is daydreaming.”
Taking aim at the Congress, he said, “After a long time, now they are talking about holding a joint press conference. Congress’ election in-charge Ashok Gehlot has come to Patna only after the break of the grand alliance. Where is Rahul Gandhi, who was earlier roaming around misleading people on the Special Intensive Review (SIR)? Is it not the moral responsibility of Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav to sit together and resolve the matter.” Seat-sharing issue with maturity?”
Pointing to internal strife over seats, Paswan claimed that the alliance is “completely over”.
He said, “They have fielded candidates against each other on 10 to 12 seats. Let’s say there are six constituencies in a district, and they are fighting on one – how will people in the other five believe that they are united? They don’t know how to build, manage or maintain an alliance.”
He stressed that the people of Bihar have realized that the grand alliance cannot be trusted for governance.
Paswan said, “The way we have won in Haryana, the same result will be repeated in Bihar. Congress lost there and the Grand Alliance will have to face defeat here.”
Raising questions on the leadership crisis within the opposition faction, the LJPRV chief commented, “There is a tussle between Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav over who will lead the alliance. Meanwhile, all the NDA allies have unanimously decided to contest the elections under the leadership of Nitish Kumar. No one in our alliance has objected to his name. We have finalized the seat sharing, announced the candidates, nominations Have filed and here we are.” Preach on the ground.”
Hitting out at Nitish Kumar’s critics, Paswan said, “Those questioning Nitish Kumar’s health should see that he is actively campaigning. What are the Grand Alliance leaders doing? Why are they not in the field?”
Earlier in the day, Congress election in-charge and former Rajasthan chief minister Ashok Gehlot met RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav in Patna, saying “everything is fine within the grand alliance” and announcing a joint press conference on Thursday.
