Patna (Bihar) [India], November 3 (ANI): Amid intense political campaigning ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MP Sanjay Yadav on Monday claimed that the ruling NDA is losing ground in the state and asserted that the Mahagathbandhan is poised to form the next government.
Speaking to reporters in Patna, the RJD MP exuded confidence and said, "The writing on the wall is clear now," and Mahagathbandhan is going to form the government.
"The message is clear that after 14th Nov, NDA CM's face won't be visible anywhere publicly. What did the CM say? That NDA will form the Govt. But CM's name has not been taken anywhere. His own people are saying this now. You do not even need to read between the lines. The writing on the wall is clear now... Mahagathbandhan is going to form the government," said Yadav.
Meanwhile, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary took a swipe at RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav's statement that he will take oath as the next chief minister of Bihar on November 18.
"It is not a monarchy. The people of Bihar will decide this. Lalu Prasad Yadav tortured the Congress and forced them to declare Tejashwi as the Chief Ministerial candidate, but the people of Bihar will decide who will be the Chief Minister, and I am confident that the people of Bihar will support the NDA," Chaudhary told ANI when he was asked about Tejashwi Yadav's remarks.
Earlier in the day, Union Minister and Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief Chirag Paswan also took a swipe at the RJD leader, saying that there is no harm in seeing "Mungeri Lal ke haseen sapne".
Speaking to ANI, Paswan, while responding to Yadav's statement that Mahagathbandhan would take oath on November 18, said, "There is no harm in seeing 'Mungeri Lal ke haseen sapne.' On November 14, NDA is going to form the government once again under the leadership of CM Nitish Kumar."
Tejashwi Yadav had exuded confidence that Mahagathbandhan will form the next government in Bihar, and the swearing-in will take place on November 18, just four days after the declaration of results.
"You can see there is 'maha jungle raaj' in Bihar. There isn't a single day when firing doesn't happen in Bihar. The Mahagathbandhan is going to form the government. On November 14, the results will be declared, and the oath ceremony will be on November 18, and between 26th November and 26th January, irrespective of caste or religion, if someone is a criminal or a fraud, Tejashwi will send them to jail," Yadav had told reporters on Sunday.
The sharp political exchanges between the NDA and the Opposition bloc have intensified in the run-up to the Bihar Assembly elections.
Polling for the 243-seat Bihar Assembly is scheduled to take place in two phases on November 6 and November 11, with the counting set for November 14. (ANI)
