LJP will contest the Bihar polls as part of the NDA, but chief Chirag often walks the RJD line. In the latest case, he has taken on CM Nitish Kumar over law & order situation.
Months before polls, Bihar govt appointed Chirag Paswan’s brother-in-law Mrinal Paswan as chairperson of Scheduled Caste Commission, & Jitan Ram Manjhi’s son-in-law as its vice chairperson.
Chief of NDA constituent Hindustani Awam Morcha & son of ex-CM Jitan Ram Majhi, Suman was among 8 ministers sworn into new Nitish cabinet. He resigned from Nitish’s former govt last June.
Manjhi says Nitish wanted him to be ‘rubber stamp CM’ & JD(U) chief’s use of ‘derogatory terms’ for him indicates that he has become ‘mentally unstable’.
Santosh Suman submits his resignation & claims he is trying to save Hindustani Awam Morcha. Exit will leave Bihar's ruling Mahagathbandhan without a Dalit face in cabinet.
In interview with ThePrint, HAM’s Jitan Ram Manjhi said that despite problems, CM Nitish Kumar has ensured good governance, while also dismissing the LJP’s prospects in Bihar polls.
Bihar CM Nitish Kumar wants to counter the charges of neglecting Dalits, and so the party is looking for fresh Dalit faces to field in the state polls, JDU leaders say.
