Before the Bihar elections, the Rashtriya Janata Dal and the Grand Alliance have once again suffered a setback. The Rashtriya Lok Samata Party has announced its separation from the RJD. Party's national president Upendra Kushwaha said on Thursday - If the RJD changes its leadership, our party will join the Grand Alliance. We will convince our people to join the Grand Alliance.
He was addressing an emergency meeting of party officials. At the meeting, he was authorized to take a decision on whether to contest elections through coalitions or independently, so that an alternative government could be formed in the state.
Kushwaha said in his address that the number of seats is not a matter. We can compromise on the number of seats. The people of the state want change, but the public is also of the opinion that alternative leadership should be such that it can stand in front of Nitish Kumar. We have said earlier that RJD's current leadership (Tejashwi Yadav) will not stand in front of Nitish Kumar.
