Nitish Kumar's reported discontent with the INDIA bloc adds another layer to the political turmoil...
Digital Desk: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's potential resignation, accompanied by several Congress MLAs, are sending shockwaves through the state's political landscape. Sources indicate he might break away from the Mahagathbandhan and rejoin the BJP-led NDA. The prospect of Nitish Kumar taking oath as Chief Minister in a JD(U)-BJP alliance, with Sushil Kumar Modi as his deputy, adds complexity to the unfolding scenario.
Sushil Modi's enigmatic statement about closed doors opening underscores the fluid nature of politics, refraining from detailed comments. Tensions between JD(U) and RJD intensified following Lalu Yadav's daughter Rohini Acharya's criticism of Nitish Kumar's 'dynasty politics' remark.
Amid the political drama, both Bihar BJP and RJD have scheduled crucial meetings in Patna. BJP's national general secretary Vinod Tawde will be present, emphasizing the significance of Nitish Kumar's possible return to the NDA.
The potential shift has repercussions for the INDIA alliance, with Akhilesh Yadav expressing regret over Nitish Kumar's departure, suggesting he could have become the Prime Minister within the alliance. Akhilesh also criticized the Congress for not maintaining enthusiasm within the coalition.
Failed seat-sharing talks within the INDIA alliance have fueled discord, leading to the Trinamool Congress deciding to go solo in the Lok Sabha polls in West Bengal. Similarly, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) ruled out an alliance with the Congress in Punjab, expressing confidence in winning all 13 Lok Sabha seats.
Nitish Kumar's reported discontent with the INDIA bloc adds another layer to the political turmoil. The BJP's orchestrated meetings and the RJD gathering at Tejashwi Yadav's residence indicate the parties' strategic moves in response to the evolving situation.
As Bihar braces for a potential political realignment, the uncertainties surrounding Nitish Kumar's resignation and its impact on alliances highlight the intricate dynamics of Indian politics. The coming days will reveal whether Nitish Kumar's speculated move marks a significant shift in Bihar's political landscape or if it's a strategic maneuver within the complex web of political alliances.
