LJP will form the Next Government in Bihar: Paswan
Patna: Nov. 25, 2007
Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) president and Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan, visited Gandhi Maidan in Patna on Sunday to review the preparation for the November 28 ‘Sankalp Rally’, one of the many rallies organized or to be organized soon by nearly all political parties that are not part of the NDA government in Bihar.
Paswan said the rally would bring delegates from all parts of Bihar and other states like Jharkhand, West Bengal, Orissa, Uttar Pradesh, and Maharashtra who would pledge to put LJP into power in Bihar in the next Assembly elections.
"People have seen both the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the NDA government in Bihar. Now it is our turn to prove what we can do for Bihar," the Union Minister said.
The main platform from where Paswan and other LJP leaders would address the crowd is being built like a huge bungalow with arrangements to manage the rally-attendees, Paswan said.
The LJP leader who had earlier said he was forced to go against the Nitish government because his feelings were hurt after a handful of Janata Dal (U) activists burnt his effigies on fertilizer issue, was accompanied by Dr. Ranjan Yadav and party spokesperson Sanjay Singh.
Meanwhile, Paswan’s brother and the event coordinator Pashupati Kumar Paras slammed the district administration for deliberately posing hurdles in the preparation for the rally by allowing the organizers of the upcoming book fair to put fences in areas that were reserved for the LJP rally.
“We had reserved the place well over two months in advance. Yet the district administration went ahead and allowed the fair organizers to take up the northern end of the Maidan,” Paras said while threatening to tear up the fence if it was not removed by the administration soon.
