Bihar Politics Sees Shifts After Election
After the Bihar elections, some Congress MLAs might join the JD(U) party.
The Congress party is upset because their MLAs are not attending their meetings.
The BJP is also trying to get some MLAs from the RLM party to join them.
There is also talk that RCP Singh, who left JD(U) and joined Jan Suraaj, might go back to JD(U).
This shows that politics in Bihar is changing a lot after the elections.
All six Congress MLAs in Bihar are reportedly in touch with JD(U) and may defect.
The Congress party denies these speculations, calling them politically motivated.
