When Tejashwi Yadav was claiming that this time he would ‘play’ with Nitish-BJP, it was believed that some JDU MLAs had come in his favor. On the strength of this, Tejashwi Yadav will not only topple Nitish Kumar’s government, but can also form his own government with new data. If this had happened, it would have been a big blow to the BJP leadership just before the Lok Sabha elections, because ever since the duo of Amit Shah and PM Narendra Modi have taken over the central politics, they have formed governments in many states by getting MLAs and MPs to change sides. have been formed, but no political party has succeeded in breaking the BJP MLAs themselves. In such a situation, if Tejashwi Yadav had succeeded in making a big move, it could have increased the challenge of NDA in Bihar in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Even during the trust vote, when three BJP MLAs did not reach the House till the last moment, speculations were being made about the same upset. But during the trust vote, Tejashwi Yadav could not keep his own MLAs with him. Their MLAs Chetan Anand, Neelam Devi and Prahlad Yadav voted in favor of the government.
This turned the tables and 129 votes were cast in favor of the government, which was more than the total number of its MLAs. Those who were thinking of playing with Tejashwi NDA, ultimately it was proved that the real players of this game are Modi-Shah only. He not only kept his hold on all the MLAs of the government, but also defeated the RJD MLAs. However, during the vote on the Speaker’s trust, only 125 MLAs voted in opposition, which suggests that they will ultimately remain in their own camps.
