PATNA: At a time when the result of the Jharkhand Assembly election has pushed the leaders of NDA in Bihar to a contemplating mood, Congress workers are riding high on the success. Elated over the success of party in Jharkhand, they are even of the view that this is the beginning of the end of BJP and its allies in Bihar.
Drawing a parallel between Jharkhand and Bihar, Congress MLC and AICC media panellist Prem Chandra Mishra tweeted, “The NDA will no longer get votes in the name of false propaganda and Pakistan, “adding that victory of Jharkhand was theirs.
“The victory of Jharkhand is ours, now it is Bihar’s turn,!!”, Mishra tweeted.
Speaking in a similar tone, JDU spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan Prasad admitted that had it been an alliance led by BJP, the picture would have been different in Jharkhand.
However, BJP spokesperson Dr Nikhil Anand said that the Jharkhand result will have no impact on Bihar because the demography and geography are completely different in both states and NDA here under the leadership of Nitish Kumar will do far better.
