Bihar: Lalu Yadav dares BJP to announce its CM candidate for assembly polls
New Delhi, Jun 9: A day after announcing Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's name as the grand alliance's CM candidate ahead of assembly polls, RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Tuesday dared the BJP to declare its CM candidate.
In an interview to ANI Lalu said, "BJP tumko dum hai to aaj announce kar, ki tumhara kaun CM candidate hoga (I dare BJP to announce its CM candidate for Bihar.)"
"Tum (BJP) soch rhe ho tumko bahumat milega to tum announce karo (If you (BJP) think you'll get majority in Bihar then announce your CM candidate."
The former Bihar CM also claimed that the BJP fears losing vote bank share after declaring its CM candidate.
RJD, JD(U) on Monday arrived at a consensus to declare Nitish Kumar as the secular alliance's CM candidate however, the parties have not decided on seat sharing.
Earlier on Monday, RJD chief Lalu Prasad said RJD-JD(U) would sort out the seat-sharing issues amicably.
While JD(U) and RJD put forward different formulae to resolve the seat-sharing issues, Congress demanded that it be alloted around 40 seats in the state.
Expressing confidence that the seat-sharing would also be done amicably, the RJD chief said, "When hearts have met, we will sort out the issue of seats as well."
