The stage is all set at Patna’s Gandhi Maidan for March 3’s Jan Vishwas Maharally, the new Bihar Opposition’s first joint rally after Chief Minister Nitish Kumar snapped ties with their mahagathbandhan alliance and formed the government with the BJP. All top Opposition leaders, including former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi, are expected to be present.
On March 2, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav appealed to the people of Bihar to take part in the rally to defeat the BJP and uproot Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the upcoming Lok Sabha election. Posters and banners put up across the State capital by RJD workers carry slogans about saving democracy and ousting the BJP.
“Brothers and sisters, we have organised Jan Vishwas Rally at Gandhi Maidan on March 3, 2024. I am appealing to all farmers, poor people, youths to come in large numbers to uproot the Central government of the BJP,“ Mr. Yadav said, in a video posted on X.
