July 17-18 are going to be important for the politics of the country. What will be the future of politics, in which direction it will sit; Its symptoms have started showing. With the efforts of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, the news of Sharad Pawar pulling his leg from the Bengaluru meeting on July 17-18 in the second phase of Mahajutan of anti-BJP parties across the country will matter. But, it’s not just that there is headbutt. A similar tussle is coming to the fore even before the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) meeting. Presently this news is from Bihar. A Union Minister and a former Union Minister have shown displeasure over the leaders who have been invited in this NDA meeting or who are seen in Modi-support.
Uncle Paras’ displeasure did not go away from nephew Chirag
For the last few days, Union Minister Pashupati Kumar Paras is very upset. The whole family of late Ram Vilas Paswan’s brother is getting confused. Paras has trouble with the entry of late Ram Vilas Paswan’s son and Jamui MP Chirag Paswan into the NDA. On July 8, when the NDA gave the green signal to Chirag, ‘Amar Ujala’ had earlier brought the information that he was going to get a place in the Union Cabinet. Along with this, a story was also brought that BJP will have to hold a panchayat-like settlement meeting between uncle and nephew. The BJP did not conduct that settlement meeting, as a result of which Paras is enraged. Before going to Delhi for the meeting, he said in his parliamentary constituency Hajipur that he and Chirag will not live together. There is an alliance with BJP, there will be no direct tie-up with LJP (Ram Vilas). On the other hand, Chirag Paswan has returned from Patna to Delhi two days before the meeting. He did not talk to the media on this issue even while living in Patna.
Kushwaha said – will not tell whether he will go to the meeting or not
Here, Upendra Kushwaha, who was the Union Minister of State in the NDA government itself, is also angry. On the question of Modi side or Modi opposition, he may be saying that there is no alternative to Narendra Modi on the Prime Minister’s chair in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections; But he is angry with Bihar’s own Kushwaha leader Nagmani’s entry into the NDA. On the question of whether he is going to the NDA meeting to be held in Delhi on July 18 or not, he said in Patna a day ago – “The call has come. Will not go or not, will not tell in advance. If you have to go, you will go, then you will know. Even if you don’t go, you will know.” Only after forming the Rashtriya Lok Janata Dal (RLJD) after being freed from the Janata Dal United (JDU), only the NDA was left for him. He also talked about being with the NDA, but Upendra Kushwaha’s attitude has changed since Nagmani’s meeting with former BJP national president Amit Shah in the past. He appears to have no choice, but is enraged by the entry of indigenous leader Nagmani. Nagmani not only announced joining the NDA, but also expressed his desire to contest the Lok Sabha elections from Upendra Kushwaha’s favorite Karakat parliamentary seat.
