"Bihar's Political Drama: JD(U) Issues Whip, RJD Moves MLAs to Tejashwi's Residence Ahead of Trust Vote"

Ahead of the February 12 floor test of the Nitish Kumar government in Bihar, the JD(U) issued a whip to its legislators to be present in the assembly during the vote, while the opposition RJD moved all its MLAs and MLCs to Tejashwi Yadav’s residence in Patna. The NDA government, with a wafer-thin majority, has the support of 128 legislators, while the opposition Mahagathbandhan has the support of 115 MLAs. The RJD's move to shift its legislators was to prevent "horse-trading" attempts by the ruling alliance, while the BJP accused the RJD of keeping its leaders under "house arrest" and expressed confidence in the NDA's position.

"Bihar's Grand Alliance in Turmoil: Prashant Kishor's Predictions Unfold"

"Nitish Kumar Resigns as Bihar Chief Minister, Shakes Up INDIA Bloc Dynamics"

Nitish Kumar has resigned as Bihar Chief Minister, ending the JD(U)'s alliance with the RJD and likely returning to an alliance with the BJP. The BJP and JD(U) have finalized a seat-sharing agreement for the upcoming Lok Sabha election. With RJD as the single-largest party in the Bihar Assembly, the BJP and JD(U) together would have 123 MLAs, just one more than the halfway mark needed to form the government. If JD(U) exits the 'Mahagatbandhan' coalition, they would fall short by eight MLAs of the majority mark, while RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has hinted at staking claim to form the government with the backing of Congress and left parties.

Opposition's Criticism of New Parliament Building Draws BJP and Union Minister's Ire

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) tweeted a picture of a coffin alongside the new Parliament building, likening the triangular shape of the latter to a coffin. The BJP responded by saying that the RJD's politics will be buried in the coffin in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. BJP spokespersons called the tweet "disgusting" and "condemnable". The RJD justified the tweet by saying that democracy was buried as neither the President nor the Vice President were invited to the inauguration. The new Parliament building, constructed by Tata Projects Ltd, will have a grand Constitution Hall, a lounge for MPs, a library, multiple committee rooms, dining areas and ample parking space.
