Today i.e. Saturday is being considered a special day due to the ongoing political turmoil in Bihar. Amidst the talk of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar once again joining the BJP-led NDA, Janata Dal (United) has called a meeting of all its MLAs at the CM residence on Sunday. Here, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) have also started forming camps. RJD has called a meeting of the legislature party today at 1 pm, while BJP is also going to hold a meeting with party MLAs at 4 pm.
Mobile phones of 13 Congress MLAs not reachable
Meanwhile, the biggest news is coming from the Congress camp. Sources say that the mobile phones of 13 Congress MLAs have become unreachable. Sources say that many Congress MLAs are in touch with BJP and JDU. Congress has termed the news of MLAs breaking up as baseless. According to a source related to Congress, Bihar Congress in-charge Mohan Prakash has talked to 14 MLAs of the party so far and no MLA is leaving the party. All Congress MLAs are to meet in Purnia. Here, sources say that in view of the changing political situation in Bihar, the proposed rally in Purnia may be cancelled. On the other hand, Congress can now use Sonia Gandhi as a trump card to convince Nitish Kumar. Here there is news that Sonia Gandhi can talk to Nitish Kumar on phone.
JDU-BJP and we can form government together
Let us tell you that JDU has 45 MLAs, BJP has 76 and Jitan Ram Manjhi’s HAM has 4 MLAs. In such a situation, these three parties together have 125 MLAs, which is three more than the magic figure of 122 required to form the government. If some MLAs do not come to the Legislature Party meeting to be held on Saturday, it could be difficult for Nitish Kumar as well as the NDA. RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav is also keeping a close eye on the situation. At present there are 79 MLAs of RJD, 19 of Congress and 12 of Left parties.
