Poor show in the Lok Sabha poll and disenchantment amongst cadre with party’s way of functioning is likely to hurt Nitish Kumar Government in Bihar badly.
As per reports, Kumar may be one of the biggest losers of this general election, as his minority Government may face threat if the party performs poorly.
Surge of the Modi-wave in the State and opinion polls predicting an unprecedented performance of the BJP in the Lok Sabha poll in Bihar may trigger more desertions in the party already suffering from suspension and resignations of MLAs.
Reports also claim that RJD, an age-old Congress ally, is mounting pressure over the party to withdraw support from the Bihar Government. It is to be noted that Congress supported the JDU after it pulled out alliance from the BJP in July, 2013.
Senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi on Tuesday said over 50 legislators from JDU are in touch with his party as they are unhappy with the Chief Minister.
“More than 50 JDU MLAs are in touch with us. They have openly supported us and worked for our candidates in this Lok Sabha poll. They are not happy with the way things are in Bihar now,” senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi told reporters at the airport here before leaving for campaigning.
“Nitish Kumar’s political graph has plummeted and these JDU MLAs are supporting us out of their fear that RJD and Lalu Prasad may come back to power in Bihar. They don’t want this to happen. They do not want the State to slip back to its old days,” he said.
