Kushwaha Expresses Anger Over 'Raw Deal' from NDA Partners
Upendra Kushwaha, a leader from an ally party in the NDA, is upset because he feels ignored.
He wasn't mentioned by the Prime Minister at a recent event and none of his party members were chosen for government positions.
Kushwaha believes he is important for the NDA's success and deserves more respect.
He also wants more seats for his party in the upcoming elections, but the larger party, BJP, isn't offering as many as he wants.
Kushwaha is worried that his party is being overlooked and is not being valued as much as they should be.
Upendra Kushwaha, a BJP Rajya Sabha member, expresses discontent over treatment by NDA partners.
Kushwaha felt slighted by PM Modi's omission of his name at a rally.
No RLM members were included in recent state government commissions, unlike other NDA allies.
Kushwaha seeks at least 15 assembly seats in seat-sharing arrangements, which the BJP is unwilling to grant.
Kushwaha is reportedly concerned about being 'neglected' by alliance partners.
