New Delhi: The Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) is likely to join the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), sources said on Tuesday. Notably, the RLD-led by Jayant Chaudhary, which fought the UP Assembly elections with Samajwadi Party (SP), if joins the NDA, it would be a short in the arm for the ruling dispensation in the Hindi heartland state, which has the highest number of parliamentary seats.
Sources added that it has learnt that the saffron party has offered three to four seats to the RLD in Uttar Pradesh. However, both parties have not made any comments on the same so far. Sources further added that top leaders of both parties may formally hold a meeting in this regard. ETV Bharat tried to contact several leaders of the party, but there was no response.
Reportedly, the latest political development came in the wake of Bihar Chief Minister and JD (U) national president Nitish Kumar severing ties with the INDIA alliance.
