Speculation Arises as ‘Ek Nischay Aur Ek Nitish’ Posters Emerge Ahead of INDIA Bloc Meeting in Patna

GG News Bureau
Patna, 19th Dec. Prior to the INDIA bloc meeting on Tuesday, posters advocating for Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as the Prime Ministerial candidate have appeared in Patna. The posters supporting CM Nitish Kumar state, “Agar sach mein jeet chahiye toh fir ek Nischay aur ek Nitish (If we truly desire victory, then we need unity and Nitish.)”

The bloc will convene for its fourth meeting on Tuesday, with discussions on seat-sharing for next year’s Lok Sabha elections expected to be a prominent topic.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee announced on Monday that the INDIA bloc’s choice for prime minister will be determined after the general elections in 2024. She expressed confidence in the alliance’s ability to resolve all outstanding issues, including seat-sharing, and defeat the BJP.

Prior to the Opposition alliance meeting, Aam Aadmi Party leader Atishi stated that crucial matters such as seat-sharing will be discussed.

Atishi told ANI on Tuesday, “During today’s meeting, important matters such as seat-sharing will be discussed. The AAP and Arvind Kejriwal will make every effort to ensure the success of the alliance.”

Seat-sharing for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections, which are only four months away, will be a key agenda item for the next INDIA bloc meeting. This will be particularly crucial for the Congress party, especially after their defeat in the heartland states of Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, and Madhya Pradesh.

The inaugural meeting of the Opposition alliance was held in Patna on June 23, initiated by Nitish, while the second meeting took place in Bengaluru on July 17-18.

The third meeting of the Opposition alliance was held in Mumbai on August 31 and September 1.
