Bihar’s simmering political cauldron has boiled over with Nitish Kumar’s Rajya Sabha shift, prompting Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav to accuse the BJP of a calculated plot to finish off the JD(U). Speaking in the assembly, the young RJD firebrand likened the strategy to BJP’s Maharashtra playbook, where allies are systematically sidelined to install loyalists.
‘BJP chooses CMs who are mere rubber stamps. They’ve hijacked Nitish long ago, and now it’s evident,’ Yadav declared. He tapped into widespread public discontent, insisting Bihar rejects this scheme—a tactic BJP deploys against every partner. Following the RSS script, he charged, BJP corrupts democracy by making the Election Commission its polling arm.
‘Bihar watches every move. We feel for Nitish’s plight—it’s public treachery by known culprits.’ Yadav claimed BJP’s harassment compelled Nitish’s departure, intent on wiping JD(U) off the map.
Rohini Acharya amplified the narrative on X, holding Nitish accountable for his woes. ‘The opportunism king, betrayed allies repeatedly, now pays the price. BJP muscled him into this post his January 28 flip from Mahagathbandhan, turning him into a puppet of the ally-burier extraordinaire,’ she tweeted.
These pointed barbs reveal NDA tensions, with Yadav positioning RJD as Bihar’s conscience. As transition talks heat up, the opposition’s offensive could sway voter perceptions, potentially altering alliance equations before future polls. Bihar’s political chessboard is in flux, promising riveting developments.
