RJD leader Manoj Kumar Jha's reaction came after Rahul Gandhi yesterday said that discussions are on to unite political parties against BJP and RSS.

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) national spokesperson Manoj Kumar Jha on Saturday said that efforts have been made to unite the opposition parties, however, it has not materialized.

Mr Jha's reaction came after Congress leader and Lok Sabha MP Rahul Gandhi on Friday said that discussions are going on to unite political parties against BJP and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), and decide its framework and implementation.

The Wayanad MP was backed by RJD leader Sharad Yadav. Speaking to ANI, he said, "There is a need for a common program at the national level before opposition unity."

Mr Jha further said that the opposition parties will have to tell the people of the country about their agenda for the people for the next 200 days. "Opposition parties have to clear their vision for unemployment, inflation, and a better economy. Only then opposition unity is possible," he further stated.
