Talking to mediapersons in Delhi, Yadav Senior Janata Dal (United) and rajsabha JDU leader Sharad Yadav said the mandate was not for the JD (U) to join hands with the BJP. “I don’t agree with the decision in Bihar. It is unfortunate,” Yadav told reporters outside Parliament.
Earlier Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar had on July 26 resigned his position, ending his party’s two-year tie-up with the Rashtriya Janata Dal and the Congress. Kumar, who is also the JD (U) president, returned as the chief minister in less than 18 hours with the backing of the BJP with which he had broken ties in 2013.
Kumar walked out of the ruling coalition citing corruption charges against his deputy Tejashwi Yadav, who is the son of and RJD chief Lalu Prasad. While some senior JD (U) leaders have publically spoke against Kumar’s move, Sharath Yadav had not said anything until Monday.
Nitish Kumar’s decision has ended giving up important portfolios to BJP 12 ministers that has echoed opposition inside JDU camps.
Now Ex JDU President Sharth yadav itself broken silence., will it further divide JDU unity and destabilise Nitish Government is million dollar question that needs answer.
