Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Giriraj Singh on Monday said that former Bihar chief minister Jitan Ram Manjhi's decision on seat sharing will help in removing jungle raj from Bihar.
Manjhi is one of the leaders of NDA and whatever decision he takes will benefit the NDA because jungle raj needs to be removed from Bihar, Singh said.
Singh further said that talks are going on with all parties in the alliance and no one holds any bitterness towards Manjhi.
NDA is a symbol against the jungle raj in Bihar. We all are NDA who do not want maladministration. Manjhi will have to make announcement and he will do it today, he added.
Meanwhile, Janata Dal (United) leader KC Tyagi said that his party had made Jitan Ram Manjhi the chief minister of Bihar whereas the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has made him a beggar.
We made Jitan Ram Manjhi the state?s chief minister and the Bharatiya Janata Party made him a beggar, he told ANI.
Tyagi further said that Manjhi has betrayed the trust of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and would never be accepted in the JD (U).
Polls for the 243-member Bihar Assembly will be held in five phases starting on October 12 and ending on November 5. Counting of votes will take place on November 8.
