Patna, June 5 (IANS) With the results of the Lok Sabha election declared, the politics of offers has intensified in Bihar. Rashtriya Janata Dal senior leader Abdul Bari Siddiqui has made an open offer to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
“Nitish Kumar should take a strong decision and come together to stop the BJP,” Siddiqui said.
RJD Rajya Sabha MP Manoj Jha took a dig at the poor performance of the BJP in the Lok Sabha poll.

When the RJD asked Nitish Kumar to change sides, BJP MP from Begusarai Giriraj Singh said: “400 Paar was our slogan and Tukde-Tukde gang achieved only 234 seats. BJP alone has got 240 seats. In such a situation, they are inviting Nitish Kumar for Tejashwi Yadav.”

On the BJP lagging behind in Bihar, UP and West Bengal, Giriraj Singh said that it will be reviewed.
