‘Our alliance is like Fevicol’ — JDU’s Lalan Singh blasts Congress in LS, warns of ‘snake bite at 99’

New Delhi: Union Minister Lalan Singh attacked the Opposition for its criticism of the budgetary allocations to Bihar, saying that efforts to wedge a divide would fail given the ‘Fevicol’ bond of the JD(U) and the BJP.Singh, the JD(U) MP from Munger, further used the analogy from Ludo to state that the snake would bite the Congress party at 99 (read, its tally in the Lok Sabha) and that they would fall down to zero once again.  “Bihar and Andhra Pradesh are part of India. The real reason (for the protests) is that the  opposition parties are not digesting the victory of Modi in the Lok Sabha election for the third time. They don’t like the face of Modi; that is why instead of discussing Budget, they are discussing Modi during the Budget discussion,” he said in the Lok Sabha. ...

Importance of Manish Verma, 2nd ex-IAS whom Nitish grafted into JD(U) after RCP Singh

Patna: When Manish Verma was inducted into the Janata Dal (United) formally in Patna on 9 July, it was expected that parallels would be drawn between the former Indian Administrative Services (IAS) officer and Nitish Kumar’s former friend-turned-adversary R.C.P Singh.After all, there are two factors common between the two former civil servants that link them with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar — all the three hail from Nalanda district and are from the Kurmi caste.  Like Singh, who took voluntary retirement from the IAS in 2010, Verma took the same route in 2021. After he stepped out of civil services, the 2000-batch Odisha-cadre IAS officer  joined Nitish Kumar’s inner coterie as advisor and is now seen as his confidant — a privilege which Singh previously enjoyed as someone who had...

JD(U), TDP Vie For Lok Sabha Speaker Post Amid Swift NDA 3.0 Cabinet Formation, Here’s Why

The BJP has managed to swear in a full cabinet of 72 ministers just four days after the verdict, despite falling short of a majority in the recent elections. This achievement comes in stark contrast to the previous Narendra Modi administrations, which took 10 and seven days respectively after the poll results to be sworn in. This time, the BJP's top leadership had to engage in extensive discussions with allies, particularly N Chandrababu Naidu's Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and Nitish Kumar's Janata Dal-United (JDU), to finalise ministerial positions. However, a significant question remains unresolved: who will occupy the Lok Sabha Speaker's post? Both the TDP and JDU, emerging as kingmakers in this election, are vying for the influential position, according...

Allies may change, but Nitish remains axis of Bihar politics | India News – Times of India

PATNA: Politics is a game of possibilities, and no one knows this better than Bihar CM Nitish Kumar who has ditched enough allies over the years. His spectacular performance in the Lok Sabha polls has once again ensured he remains the alliance’s face in Bihar till next year’s assembly polls. More so, because former deputy CM Sushil Kumar Modi’s untimely death has left BJP without a stalwart in the state.BJP can, of course, campaign using PM Modi’s name, as it did in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh, but given Nitish’s considerable support base among the Extremely Backward Classes (EBCs) and women — JD(U) has won 12 of the 16 seats it was allotted under the seat-sharing arrangement — it would not want to distance him.The EBC category comprising 130 small caste groups like Dhanu...

Tejashwi spreads his net far and wide

On February 22, as Tejashwi Yadav finished his 20-minute-long speech at a public meeting in Siwan, a stopover 132 km northwest of Patna, during his Jan Vishwas Yatra across the state, almost everyone in the first few rows, young men all, shouted out a request. The message could have been lost in the din, but the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader caught on what his audience wanted—to speak in the local dialect. And Tejashwi obliged, switching to chaste Bhojpuri to say, ‘Rauaa logan ke aye ke baa’—please come [to Patna for the March 3 rally]. On that day, a mega Opposition show, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is expected to share the stage with RJD president Lalu Prasad and CPI(M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury. Source link
