JD(U) may have firmed up its ties with BJP but its chief, Nitish Kumar, had made a bid to revive Grand Alliance in Bihar ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
RJD, once a prominent representative of Mandal politics, now finds itself in a political era where welfare, good governance, and new aspirations are overshadowing old caste equations.
Without a Congress revival, there can be no challenge to the BJP pan-nationally. Modi’s party is growing, and almost entirely at the cost of the Congress.
