Chirag Paswan slams Tejashwi Yadav, says Grand Alliance 'completely destroyed'

LJP chief Chirag Paswan declares Bihar's Grand Alliance "completely finished" amid internal conflicts, mocking Tejashwi Yadav's poll promises as daydreaming.

"The Mahagathbandhan has been completely destroyed. Despite this, if Tejashwi Yadav thinks he will come to power, he is daydreaming. - Chirag Paswan"

Patna, Oct 22

Lok Janshakti Party Ram Vilas (LJPRV) chief Chirag Paswan on Wednesday hit out at RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, mocking his poll promises of regularising contractual employees and Jivika Didis as “dreams of Mungeri Lal”.

Speaking to reporters in Patna, Paswan said, “First, he would at least form the government and then think of it. The Grand Alliance leaders are busy fighting among themselves. As a result, the Mahagathbandhan has been completely destroyed. Despite this, if Tejashwi Yadav thinks he will come to power, he is daydreaming.”

Taking a swipe at the Congress, he said, “After many days, they are now talking about holding a joint press conference. Congress election in-charge Ashok Gehlot has come to Patna only after the Grand Alliance collapsed. Where is Rahul Gandhi, who was roaming around earlier and misleading people over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR)? Is it not a moral responsibility for Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav to sit together and resolve the seat-sharing issue with maturity?”

Paswan claimed the alliance was “completely finished,” pointing out internal conflicts over seats.

“They have fielded candidates against each other in 10 to 12 seats. Suppose one district has six constituencies, and they’re fighting on one — how will people in the other five believe they are united? They don’t know how to form, manage, or maintain alliances,” he said.

He asserted that people of Bihar have realised that the Grand Alliance cannot be trusted to govern.

“The way we have won in Haryana, the same result will be repeated in Bihar. Congress lost there, and the Grand Alliance will face defeat here,” Paswan said.

Questioning the leadership crisis within the opposition bloc, the LJPRV chief remarked, “There is a tussle between Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav over who will lead the alliance. Meanwhile, all NDA partners have unanimously decided to contest under the leadership of Nitish Kumar. No one in our alliance has objected to his name. We have finalised seat sharing, announced candidates, filed nominations, and are now campaigning on the ground.”

Taking a jab at critics of Nitish Kumar, Paswan added, “Those questioning Nitish Kumar’s health should see that he is actively campaigning. What are the Grand Alliance leaders doing? Why are they not out in the field?”

Earlier in the day, the Congress election in-charge and former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot met RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav in Patna, asserting that “all is well within the Grand Alliance” and announcing a joint press conference on Thursday.

While I respect Chirag's points, I wish our politicians would focus more on development promises rather than just alliance politics. Bihar needs employment and education, not just political games. 🤔

Tejashwi Yadav's promises for contractual employees and Jivika Didis were good intentions, but without proper planning and unity, they remain just dreams. Chirag's "Mungeri Lal" comment is harsh but somewhat true. 😅

As someone who has been following Bihar politics for years, this internal conflict in Grand Alliance is disappointing. They had a real chance to provide a strong opposition, but ego clashes are ruining everything.

Nitish Kumar may be campaigning actively, but let's not forget his frequent alliance changes. Chirag should focus on his own party's performance rather than just criticizing others. Every party has its challenges.

The common people of Bihar are suffering because of this political drama. Whether it's NDA or Grand Alliance, they should work together for Bihar's development instead of fighting for power. Jai Bihar! 🙏
