New Delhi: Senior Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) leader Rameshwar Chaurasia on Friday said that the condition of Janata Dal-United (JDU) has become similar to Telangana Desam Party (TDP) led by Chandrababu Naidu. He said, "TDP, a man army party, saw its downfall and JD(U) is also following its path."
LJP leader said that no one should be surprised on six Janata United Dal (JDU) leaders from Arunachal Pradesh joining BJP. The leader said that the JD(U) MLAs did so because the party has slipped to the third position in Bihar and won only 43 seats in the Bihar Assembly elections despite party supremo Nitish Kumar's incumbency in the state.
Chaurasia said, "The party is facing leadership crisis and Nitish Kumar has now become weak. The rebel MLAs must have thought that their future is secure with BJP. There is no one to look after the party after Nitish Kumar. No one should be taken aback if JD(U) weakens in Bihar just like in Arunachal Pradesh because BJP is a strong party."
"BJP is the largest party in the nation and it cannot face any political crisis in the future, " he said.
Four-time Bihar BJP MLA Rameshwar Chaurasia joined LJP ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections and had also served important positions in the party.
Nitish Kumar suffered a big jolt after six of its seven MLAs shifted allegiance to the ruling BJP in Arunachal Pradesh. The lone MLA from the People’s Party of Arunachal, Kardo Nyigyor, has also joined the saffron party. The development came a day ahead of the announcement of the panchayat and municipal poll results.
