The Congress party is intensifying its efforts as the Bihar elections approach, demonstrating a newfound determination to reclaim its former stature in the political arena. After years in the shadows, the people of Bihar are witnessing a revitalised Congress, working diligently to position itself as a key player in the next government formation. In a bold move, Congress has requested 6-7 seats in the Kosi region—an area long recognised as a stronghold of the RJD, which has historically remained resistant to requests from rival parties, a source says. The air is thick with anticipation as Tejaswi Yadav is presented with the party's list of potential candidates. Within this strategic maneuver, the importance of leveraging the influence of Pappu Yadav has surfaced, adding a layer of complexity to the political landscape. However, Lalu Yadav appears hesitant to embrace yet another prominent Yadav leader, a stance that may pose challenges for Tejaswi Yadav’s political aspirations source says.
As these dynamics unfold, the question looms, how will the RJD navigate Congress's demands amidst the shifting tides of political allegiances? The coming weeks promise to be pivotal, as the balance of power in Bihar hangs in the balance, capturing the interest of many eager observers source says.
