Old relationship between Congress and RJD – Tejashwi
Tejashwi said that Congress party and RJD have an old relationship. We have always been together in all circumstances. We have fought together against BJP even at the ideological level. The news going around that the alliance will break is the agenda of BJP. There has been no talk of rift between us. We have talked understanding each other.
He said that our agenda is to stop BJP. We can say that Bihar will give shocking results. Our conversations have been going on continuously. Our understanding remains, we are ready that Left, Congress and RJD will contest the elections together.
Even in the last Lok Sabha elections, Congress had got nine seats. Tejashwi Yadav may also meet Mallikarjun Kharge on Wednesday. Tejashwi is in Delhi tomorrow. The last date of nomination for the first phase is the day after tomorrow and in all the four seats of this phase, Rashtriya Janata Dal candidates are in the fray, who have got the symbol, so no one is in a hurry.
