With just a few days left for the Bihar polls, Union minister Chirag Paswan on Wednesday took a dig at the Mahagathbandhan alliance after the allies failed to come up with their seat-sharing formula.
Paswan, whose Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) is contesting on 29 seats, said that the NDA would form the state government on November 14.
“There is so much going on in their alliance (Mahagathbandhan), and where is Rahul Gandhi? Was it not the moral responsibility of Rahul ji and Tejashwi Yadav to sit together and clear bottlenecks in the alliance? This shows a lack of seriousness on the part of Congress. No matter what they do, the reality is that after November 14, the NDA will form the government in Bihar,” Paswan was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.
“The people of Bihar have understood that if the Mahagathbandhan cannot keep together the five parties in an alliance, then they will not be able to keep Bihar united,” he added.
Earlier, Chirag highlighted the National Democratic Alliance’s timely seat-sharing announcement, further asserting that it has sent a very “positive message” and expressed his confidence in the victory of the NDA.
“The atmosphere is one-sided and we will perform better than our expectations…NDA completed the seat sharing on time, which has sent a very positive message…As the Mahagathbandhan is unable to keep its flock together, we are expected to win more seats. The leaders of NDA will celebrate Diwali again on 14 November…” he stated.
Paswan also asserted that the party aims to transform Bihar in the upcoming term after winning the Assembly Elections and promised better health and medical facilities, education infrastructure development and industrialisation.
“Our Prime Minister and Chief Minister have a vision of how we can empower each individual in society, and with that vision, we are working to move forward. We’re going to write a golden history in the next five years. For the next five years, we’ll work to transform Bihar from industrialisation to better education and health, so that no Bihari has to leave Bihar. We’re working in this direction…I won’t rest until I make Bihar first and Biharis first,” he stated.
Mahagathbandhan Likely To Announce CM Face Tomorrow
Meanwhile, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Wednesday announced his campaign plans for the Assembly elections. Tejashwi who is meeting senior Conngress leader Ashok Gehlot on Wednesday, is expected to be announced as the CM face of the Mahabgathbandhan on Thursday.
The RJD leader pushed aside reports of a rift in the Mahagathbandhan alliance, saying all answers would come on Thursday.
“There are no disputes. You will get all the answers tomorrow,” Yadav said.
