After the LJP split, eyes on Congress MLAs in Bihar

It’s all rumours spread by some leaders of a ruling party to create confusion, says Congress leader
After the split in the Lok Janshakti Party (LJP), now speculation is rife in Bihar for a possible break among 19 State Congress legislators. Congress leaders, though, have strongly denied it and said “such rumours are being spread by leaders of a party to create confusion”. If some ruling Janata Dal-United (JD-U) party leaders are to be believed, as many as 10 out of 19 Congress MLAs in the State are in constant touch with them and ready to break away from their party “at any time”. “We now need the support of only three Congress MLAs to make a split in the party by two-thirds to avoid action under the anti-defection laws,” said a senior JD(U) leader, adding, “but, very soon these three too would come”.More Related News
