Patna, April 22
With his absence from Congress chief Rahul Gandhi’s rallies in Bihar triggering speculation of a rift in the mahagathbandhan, RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav today dismissed the conjecture and asserted he would share stage with Gandhi in the state in coming days.
He attributed this to part of strategy so that leaders of the grand alliance cover more places during campaign.
Gandhi addressed four rallies so far in the state in Purnea (March 23), Gaya (April 9), Katihar (April 10) and Supaul (April 20), but Tejashwi did not share the stage with him, which was taken as a signal of fissure within the Opposition alliance.
“I will definitely share the stage with him (Rahul) and you will see it in the coming days. This is a part of strategy that we (leaders of grand alliance) should cover more and more places during campaigning,” Tejashwi said. — PTI
