JDU and BJP face to face again? Nitish Kumar is not ready to be satisfied with just two seats.

Jharkhand Assembly Election 2024: JDU, reacting to the statement of BJP leader and Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma regarding seat sharing with NDA parties in Jharkhand, said that the alliance's seats have not been agreed upon yet. JDU's Jharkhand in-charge and Bihar minister Ashok Chaudhary said, 'The talks have not been finalized yet. 'Talks are going on with the BJP high command.'

'…This is not right'

Actually, Chaudhary was asked that BJP is talking about giving two seats in Jharkhand. On this Chaudhary said that talks are still going on. Something can be said only after conversation. JDU has been given two seats, if it continues like this then it will not be right.

Meanwhile, Ashok Chaudhary's meeting with Chief Minister Nitish Kumar regarding the alliance meeting in Jharkhand has ended. It is believed that the proposal of two seats from BJP was also discussed in the meeting.

Talks started with senior BJP leaders

Also, Jharkhand JDU President Khiru Mahato said that no agreement has been reached yet. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Working National President Sanjay Jha are talking to senior BJP leaders. Actually, after BJP had proposed two seats, Nitish Kumar had called Khiru Mahato to Patna.

Ultimatum of 11 seats was given

After the talks with Nitish Kumar ended, Khiru Mahato said, we have given an ultimatum of 11 seats. This is being considered. There is no point in having two seats. The BJP high command has been informed on which seat the party will contest. Along with this, Khiru Mahato claimed that Saryu Ram will contest elections from Jamshedpur West.

What did Himanta Biswa Sarma say?

In fact, on Friday in Ranchi, BJP's Jharkhand in-charge Himanta Biswa Sarma said that talks are going on with AJSU on 9 to 11 seats. Besides, discussions are also going on with JDU on two seats. Apart from these two parties, the Chief Minister of Assam also spoke to Chirag Paswan. Candidates will also be announced 48 hours after the announcement of elections. However, the party has not finalized the meeting of all the alliances and it will be announced only after talks with the party leadership.
