50 per cent of Bihar Congress MLAs may quit, says Bihar Congress' Bharat Singh

- The NDA is in the process of buying 11 MLAs

Patna Ta. Wednesday 6 January 2021

There was a new explosion in Bihar politics. Bihar Congress leader and former MLA Bharat Singh had blasted that fifty per cent of Bihar Congress MLAs could change parties.

Bharat Singh alleged that the NDA was trying to buy at least eleven MLAs. He said that there is going to be a big breakdown in the Congress in the near future. However, his opinion was rejected by the Congress Movdi Mandal.

Even so, Bharat Singh continued his campaign. He said that out of the 19 MLAs who won in the recent Bihar Assembly elections, 11 were non-Congress MLAs. These people got tickets by giving money and won the election on the strength of money. Don't be surprised if these people change hands and join hands with the NDA.

RJD emerged as the largest party in the Bihar Assembly elections. The BJP was second. Now Bharat Singh says the BJP was thumping to seize power by increasing the number of its MLAs. So the NDA was trying to buy these 11 MLAs. Bharat Singh further said that the 11 MLAs who are ready to leave the Congress party are Bihar Congress state president Madan Mohan Jha, Rajya Sabha MP Akhilesh Singh Prasad and senior Congress leader Sadanand Singh. These people were guiding MLAs who wanted to leave the party. The Legislative Council is to be nominated from the Governor's quota. Sadanand Singh and Madan Mohan Jha were in the process of becoming members of the Legislative Council.

Bharat Singh claimed that I had been opposed to the RJD-Congress alliance from the beginning. He also accused Bharat Singh of engaging in anti-party activities with Rajya Sabha member Akhlish Prasad Singh, Congress state president Madan Mohan Jha and senior Congress leader Sadanand Singh.
