Politics And Mahagathbandhan Rally in Purnia
Bihar is bracing for some political saber-rattling on Saturday when Union Home Minister Amit Shah will address BJP supporters at two places, and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and his deputy Tejashwi Yadav will hold a joint rally of the ‘Mahagathbandhan‘. As per PTI report, Shah, the BJP’s veritable principal strategist, will start his tour of the state with a public meeting in Balmiki Nagar Lok Sabha constituency, a party stronghold that was given away to the chief minister’s party the JD(U) in 2019 as part of seat-sharing arrangements. The move of these two opposite groups is considered a power show in Bihar ahead of the Lok Sabha election 2024. During the rally, RJD Supremo Lalu Yadav also addressed the rally through video conferencing.
The function, scheduled around noon on February 25, will coincide with the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ rally at Purnea, more than 400 km away, where the septuagenarian CM and his 33-year-old deputy will be joined by smaller allies like the Congress and the Left in a display of the state’s own version of a “united opposition” which Kumar, in particular, believes is the way forward to take on the mighty BJP in next year’s Lok Sabha polls.
