Patna, Sep 3 (NationPress) In preparation for the Bihar Assembly elections in 2025, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) held a significant legislative party meeting in Patna on Wednesday.
This meeting, presided over by Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav at his Polo Road residence, concentrated on the party’s electoral strategy, allocation of seats, and fortifying the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance).
Attendees included all RJD MLAs and senior party officials, delving into extensive discussions regarding the future of the alliance, concerns of voters, and organizational readiness.
Tejashwi Yadav commenced the meeting by highlighting that elections are not merely about shifting power but determining the course of Bihar.
He called on MLAs to adopt a proactive and structured strategy in their outreach to voters.
The RJD MLAs shared insights from their constituencies regarding the party’s standing and public sentiment.
Key issues such as unemployment, inflation, and corruption surfaced as primary worries among voters.
The leadership evaluated the performance of current MLAs and signaled potential candidate changes in certain constituencies.
Tejashwi emphasized that the distribution of tickets would prioritize the dedication of workers and public opinion.
He instructed MLAs to mobilize party workers to restore names that were removed from the voter list during the Election Commission’s revision.
Preliminary discussions with Congress and Left parties concerning seat-sharing have already commenced, with leaders asserting that the Mahagathbandhan remains steadfast.
Tejashwi also revisited the results of his recent Voter Rights Yatra, during which he perceived significant public frustration regarding core issues.
At the organizational level, the RJD has decided that MLAs will conduct meetings at the block and panchayat levels, relaying direct feedback to the central leadership.
Strengthening booth-level operations has been marked as a top priority.
Tejashwi Yadav also criticized PM Narendra Modi concerning the ongoing controversy surrounding alleged derogatory remarks made about the Prime Minister’s mother.
He reminded that BJP leaders have previously insulted opposition leaders’ families, questioning the Prime Minister’s selective outrage.
“The Prime Minister associates with individuals who have disrespected many women of the opposition. Our mother was insulted, and so was Sonia Gandhi. Where was the Prime Minister then? He arrived five days later, shedding tears. This will not change anything,” Tejashwi remarked.
Notably, RJD leaders departing the meeting expressed confidence about the elections, confidently stating, “This time, we will celebrate Diwali.”
