Welcoming the statement made by Bihar CM Nitish Kumar at the 11th General Convention of Raipur session CPI-M, senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh while addressing a press conference said, Congress and its leader Rahul Gandhi must work for opposition unity without any delay. But a decision should be taken. The Congress said on Sunday that without it any alliance would fail and no alliance in the opposition could be successful without the Congress. In its plenary meeting, the party will discuss alliances in the states as well as the 2024 general elections. Nitish Kumar had said on Saturday that if all opposition parties, including the Congress, fight the elections together, the BJP will get less than 100 seats in the next year's Lok Sabha elections. CM Nitish Kumar said, soon after the formation of the Grand Alliance government in Bihar, I met Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi. Now I am waiting for Congress's decision on opposition unity. If Congress leads the opposition unity and takes my suggestions, the BJP will get less than 100 seats in the Lok Sabha elections. We are working for opposition unity in Bihar.
Bihar CM Nitish Kumar said, when I came out of NDA, every opposition party welcomed me. If every opposition party unites before the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, BJP will face a whitewash. I have no personal desire to lead the country. I just want change. Whatever it is, decided by the opposition parties, I will accept it.
In its plenary meeting on Sunday, Congress will discuss alliances in the states as well as the 2024 general elections. Addressing a press conference here, Jairam Ramesh said, there can be no opposition alliance without Congress and without Congress, any alliance will fail, but in the plenary session, Congress will discuss both pre-poll alliance and post-poll alliance.
Jairam Ramesh said that it is false propaganda that Congress is against the idea of an alliance, we are in alliance in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Jharkhand, Bihar and some states of the Northeast. The Congress is trying to take like-minded parties along and the opposition in the budget session jointly raised the demand for a JPC on the Adani Hindenburg report, barring some.
