Patna,(BiharTimes): Former Bihar health minister Ashwani Kumar Choubey on Monday strongly opposed any alliance between, the Bharatiya Janata Party and Lok Janshakti Party.
Talking to the media on Monday he said that any such move would be suicidal for the BJP as Ram Vilas Paswan and Lalu Yadav have hatched a conspiracy to make Rahul Gandhi the prime minister of the country. They are the one who made Narendra Modi ‘achuta’ (untouchable) and have been opposing him ever since his name first came up for the prime ministerial candidate more than three years back.
“How can we have alliance with the man who has promoted dyanasty politics, family rule, corruption and casteism. Any such move would be suicidal,” Choubey said forcefully.
Reports from New Delhi say that the BJP has agreed to give seven seats to the LJP while the latter is insisting on nine.
Sources said that the LJP may get Samastipur, Valmikinagar, Jamui, Munger, Seohar, Hajipur and one more seat. With Ujjairpur, Karakat and Nawada already gone to the Rashtriya Lok Samata Party only 30 seats would be left for the BJP. This would be too less for several dedicated party leaders like Choubey, who are interested in contesting Lok Sabha election.
