RJD Leader Tejashwi Yadav dles Question On Congress
The main opposition forces in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, Akhilesh Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav, addressed a joint press conference today, a question on the Congress and it's president was meant to rub in their difference on a core alliance question. The RJD leader and Lalu Yadav's son Tejashwi Yadav deftly handled what could have been a tricky question.
''In Bihar Rahul Gandhi's Congress is a part of year alliance but in Uttar Pradesh, Akhilesh Yadav and Mayawati have left the party out. What do you have to say?'' Tejashwi Yadav was asked.
He replied: Our aim is to defeat the BJP. You saw how in recent by-polls Samajwadi Party and Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) were enough to defeat the BJP. Rahul Gandhi has also said said whether or not he is part of the alliance, the BJP should be defeated.''
Lalu Yadav's son, Tejashwi Yadav had met with Mayawati on Sunday and Akhilesh Yadav today. The RJD leader said that the Samajwadi Party-BSP alliance was something that his father Lalu Yadav had talked about.
''Now in UP Bihar, consider the BJP wiped out. With this gatbandhan (alliance) in the two big states, the BJP is automatically 100 seats down''.
