Bihar Assembly Election: That statement of Nitish’s soldier, which in one stroke reminded BJP of its status.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Bihar Assembly Election: The announcement of assembly election dates in Bihar is still far away, but swords have already been drawn regarding the distribution of seats in the NDA house. Efforts are being made to show that everything is ‘all is well’ from outside, but inside the fight is so big that now the rhetoric has also started. The latest and most sharp statement has come from JDU, which has increased the tension of other NDA allies, especially BJP. Sanjay Jha, a strong leader of JDU and considered close to Nitish Kumar, has given such a statement on the distribution of seats, which political experts are calling ‘arrogance’ of JDU. What did Sanjay Jha say? Sanjay Jha said in blunt words, “The principle is straight. Is. JDU will not leave any of its won seats for any other party under any circumstances, no matter how much anyone asks. This is not just a statement, but a direct message from JDU to BJP and other allies. The message is that JDU will remain the ‘Big Brother’ in seat distribution and talks will be held only on its terms. JDU currently holds 115 seats in Bihar, and Sanjay Jha’s statement directly means that no other party should even think of claiming these 115 seats. What is the real game behind this statement? Nitish Kumar is considered the ‘Chanakya’ of Bihar politics, and this statement of a leader close to him has not been given without thinking. There are many big strategic reasons behind this: Politics of pressure: Putting pressure on your allies even before the elections, so that when you sit at the seat distribution table, JDU has the upper hand. Message to workers: Giving a message to your workers and MLAs that there is no need to panic, their seats are safe. This does not create an atmosphere of chaos in the party. Mirror to BJP: In recent times, BJP is trying to present itself as the elder brother in Bihar. This statement of JDU is like reminding BJP that even today Nitish Kumar is the biggest face in Bihar. Target on Chirag Paswan: This statement can also be a message for LJP (Ram Vilas) leader Chirag Paswan, who has often been claiming JDU seats. Now it remains to be seen whether BJP and other constituents of NDA will react to this strict and to some extent ‘arrogant’ statement of JDU. What reaction comes? Will they accept this ‘dadagiri’ of JDU, or is the Mahabharata regarding seats in Bihar NDA yet to happen? One thing is certain, this statement is a sign of the coming storm in Bihar politics.
