The worker told JDU the B-team of RJD
Describing Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as RJD's B team, another JDU worker said that there is no point in working with him. JDU has lost its identity under the leadership of Nitish Kumar, so we need to form a new party for the welfare of the state. Kushwaha has accepted our demand.
Kushwaha's close friend made these allegations against Lalan Singh
Madhav Anand, a close aide of Kushwaha and a member of the National Executive Council, alleged that JDU national president Lalan Singh was deliberately working to bring down not only the dignity of the party, but also the chief minister of Bihar.
