This was the first time when Tejashwi Yadav had given such a strong statement about Amit Shah.

Patna:

Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s visit to Bihar will be meant to “stoke communal tension” and the entire nation knows this, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav said today, echoing his alliance partner Janata Dal United. While Mr. Yadav has been a staunch critic of the BJP, this was the first time he made such a strong statement about the Union Home Minister, who is also the BJP’s chief strategist.

As part of the BJP’s new strategy for Bihar, Amit Shah is expected to visit the Seemanchal region of the state on September 23-24. He is likely to hold organizational meetings in Purnia district on September 23 and Kishanganj the next day.

JD(U) national president Rajiv Ranjan rubbished BJP’s plans, saying, “Amit Shah will come and across the country and in Bihar, he will try to disturb communal harmony. People of Bihar are careful. He is not taking any step.” Will pick up.” ,

When asked about today’s remarks, Tejashwi Yadav said, “Why only JD(U)? Entire Bihar knows what his (Amit Shah’s) real aim is. Needless to say it. Let’s take his name, the whole country starts talking. Woolka Kaam”.

With Nitish Kumar ending the alliance with the BJP, the party is trying to formulate a new strategy for the state in view of the 2024 general elections.

In 2019, NDA had won 39 out of 40 seats in the state. But 16 of them were won by Nitish Kumar’s Janata Dal United and six by Lok Janshakti Party.

But this time with the JD(U) and LJP split in the opposition camp, Chirag Paswan – the leader of a faction – deeply troubled by the BJP, finds it difficult to formulate a workable plan for the politically isolated party. For now, the idea is to find a face who can challenge Nitish Kumar and start with a series.”open the pole (unmasked) Nitish Kumar” holds rallies across the state.

Meanwhile, Mr. Kumar is making dire predictions about his former alliance partners.

Announcing that the Grand Alliance will capture 40 parliamentary seats in the state in 2024, he said the BJP “started with two seats and will be back there soon”.
