Now, there is a buzz that a candidate from Rajya Sabha will be selected from Bihar.Besides the selection of Rajya Sabha candidates, all eyes are on the moves of Lalu Prasad Yadav in the current political situation of Bihar. At present, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's closeness with the RJD chief's younger son Tejashwi Yadav has been increasing appeared in the last one month especially during the month of Ramzan. The situation is as such that neither from the JD-U nor from the RJD side, are giving statements against each other.The RJD over the past, criticised various policies of the Nitish Kumar government several times. Tejashwi Yadav in particular pointed out ill-implementation of liquor prohibition law, corruption, frequent crime incidents in Bihar etc. Now, the tone of leaders of both the parties have gone down.Ruling ally BJP, on the other hand, raised these points.
