Defeat in Bankipur byelection is warning bell for NDA, says JD-(U) MLA Shyam Rajak

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav claimed that the BJP’s “crushing defeat” in the Bankipur Assembly byelection was the result of the “negative politics” of Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary

Defeat in Bankipur byelection is warning bell for NDA, says JD-(U) MLA Shyam Rajak

JD-(U) MLA Shyam Rajak has warned that the defeat in the Bankipur Assembly constituency is a warning for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar. The voter turnout was low due to a lack of proper management and communication between the leaders and local workers. Mr. Rajak, who defeated the BJP candidate by a margin of 19,324 votes, stated that leaders need to review their performance and find a solution to reconnect with the voters.

He emphasized the importance of proper management in terms of which leaders should visit which areas based on their influence and effectiveness. The JD-(U) leader also believes that the defeat raises questions about whether the local workers were respected or not. A senior BJP leader agreed that the NDA's strategy was flawed and that better coordination was needed.

However, the RJD claimed that the BJP's defeat was due to negative politics by the Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary.
