Such suggestions often come under situations where political parties have some deep concerns or doubts about electoral outcomes, or it can also be a strategy to pressurize the government indirectly. India is a democratic country and elections are considered to be the pillars of democracy here. The public chooses its government only using its franchise.

Such a statement can create confusion among voters and also raise questions on the importance of democracy.

Such statements are sometimes part of big political stakes, which are used to pressurize opponents or to draw attention to any particular issue. His statement has stepped up speculation about Bihar’s election strategy and its future. Is this only a political rhetoric or is a deep strategy hidden behind it, it will only tell the time to come.
